Revolutionizing Outdoor Living with Privacy and Transparency at the Touch of a Button

Minneapolis, Minnesota — IG Railing, the leading brand in frameless glass railing systems, proudly announces the launch of IG Switch, the first-ever branded privacy frameless glass railing. With its tagline, Power Your View, IG Switch introduces cutting-edge Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC)technology to the outdoor living industry, creating a seamless blend of privacy and transparency at the flick of a switch.

Made from 9/16” low-iron laminated glass, IG Switch utilizes an electrically charged PDLC interlayer that provides 88% privacy in its still or “off” mode and 91% visual light transmission (VLT) in its “on” mode. This innovation allows homeowners to enjoy their outdoor spaces with the flexibility of full privacy or clear, unobstructed views, enhancing the already robust outdoor living market.

A New Era of Multifunctionality

Not just a privacy feature, IG Switch can double as a **high-quality white screen**, transforming your deck into an outdoor entertainment hub. From hosting movie nights to projecting the big game, its compatibility with backlit projectors ensures vibrant, sharp visuals. Additionally, IG Switch integrates seamlessly with **IG Lighting** and all existing IG Railing components, making it a versatile choice for any architectural style, whether used as a single feature panel or across an entire deck.

Mike Kunard, Owner of IG Railing, describes the launch as a landmark moment for the brand:

“IG Switch is a monumental release in the history of IG Railing. We are harnessing proprietary technology to enhance outdoor living at an accelerated pace. We are making the near unbelievable far more achievable and widely accessible to contractors and homeowners by building a national distribution model and standardizing products that were once only available on a customized basis.”

 

Available Now Through IG Railing’s Nationwide Network

Starting today, IG Switch is available everywhere IG Railing products are sold, leveraging the brand’s extensive distribution network. With an MSRP comparable to high-end outdoor televisions, IG Switch offers incredible value, boasting a five-year warranty and a 15-year life expectancy.

IG Railing continues to push boundaries, delivering innovations that redefine outdoor living. With IG Switch, homeowners and professionals alike can now elevate their spaces with unparalleled functionality and style. For more information, visit www.igrailing.com/switch.
