Privacy, Performance, and Visual Impact.
Tinted glass isn’t just about style—it’s a vital component in managing heat, light, privacy, and energy use in modern commercial buildings. At Centennial Glass, we supply and install commercial-grade tinted glass units for storefronts, curtain walls, window walls, punch windows, and more. Whether you’re looking to reduce glare, control solar heat gain, or maintain visual consistency across a façade, our team will match the perfect tint for your building’s design and performance needs.
From subtle grey tints to reflective coatings and decorative finishes, we deliver expert solutions that balance comfort, compliance, and curb appeal.

Benefits of Tinted Glass for Commercial Applications
Tinted units are sealed glass systems with a coloured substrate or film applied to the glass, often integrated into IGUs (insulated glass units) or thermopane systems.
We offer a wide variety of commercial tint options that enhance:
- Solar heat control – Reduce cooling loads and prevent heat buildup
- Glare reduction – Ideal for offices, conference rooms, or storefronts
- UV protection – Minimize fading of furniture, displays, and flooring
- Daylight management – Control interior brightness without blinds
- Privacy and design – Create a sleek, consistent look across glazing systems
