Enhancing Wellness in the Home
with Pilkington Activ™
It’s the dream for any homeowner -
finding a spacious airy property with
plenty of natural light. But, as well as
looking good, there is an increasing
amount of medical research pointing to
the health benefits of letting light into
your life.
As global glazing specialists,
Pilkington United Kingdom Limited
is dedicated to creating the types of
innovative glazing products that help
householders access and enjoy the
benefits of maximising natural light.
In northern Europe especially - with
its long, dark winters - it’s important
to make the most of any natural
light. When we’re outside, we soak
up Vitamin D that’s essential for
our immune systems, bone density
and good mental health, and even
just seeing sunlight can boost your
serotonin levels which can instantly
improve your mood.
Choosing the right glazing is a vital
starting point. It’s an important part
of creating a home that works for the
people that live in it and for creating an
environment that boosts wellbeing.
