An interactive 3D render of a home is the centre piece of a new website launched by Saint-Gobain Glass. The new website combines the existing Tech Hub, Glassolutions and Saint-Gobain Glass websites into one seamless, user-friendly experience.
The interactive house helps visitors explore how glass can be used in both interior and exterior applications to create inspirational and comfortable living spaces. The innovative tool showcases Saint-Gobain’s glazing solutions in various design contexts, helping fabricators and installers sell the benefits of a wide range of glass products to homeowners in a visually appealing way.
Steve Severs, managing director at Saint-Gobain Glass, explains: “The interactive house features hotspots to showcase the different types of glass we recommend for windows, sliding doors, roof lights, mirrors, shelving, partitions and shower screens. You can also select different types of glass in application to visually see the difference between our available options.
“This new platform has been designed with our customers and end-users in mind, featuring integrated accessibility options to ensure a seamless experience for all users. For example, it includes features such as dyslexia-friendly text and ADHD focus areas, making it more accessible for anyone with specific requirements.”
The website will also serve as a central information hub for educational and marketing assets such as case studies, brochures, and product details.
The company’s sustainability efforts and its commitment to the Saint-Gobain Net Zero 2050 initiative plus its award-winning Glass Forever glass recycling programme feature strongly on the new website.
Steve adds: “Glass makes up 70% of a window so it’s important that fabricators and installers understand its technical capabilities and the choices that exist for homeowners. Our new website, and the interactive house in particular, will help visitors make better, more informed buying decisions, as they look to create more comfortable, stylish and sustainable homes.”
