Product Description
What Is Float Glass and How Is It Made?
Float glass is a type of flat glass produced through a process where molten glass is floated on a bath of molten metal (typically tin) to produce a uniform and consistent thickness, flatness and surface quality. This process results in high optical clarity, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including windows, mirrors, picture frames, tabletops, and shower enclosures.
Why Choose Clear Glass
Versatility is the reason why clear float glass is the glass of choice for applications in the construction, decorative, automotive, and high-tech sectors. It can be processed in every imaginable way and is often used as a base glass for an entire range of glass products including:
•Mirrors and back-painted glass
•Acid-etched glass
•Tempered and laminated glass
•Safety and security glass
•Coated glass such as solar-control glass and insulating glass
•Double glazing and triple glazing
What Is The Difference Between Clear Glass And Ultra Clear Glass?
The difference between clear float glass and ultra clear float glass is that clear glass has a higher iron content, so it has a slightly greenish appearance that is particularly visible when looking at the edges of the glass. When we reduce the iron content, we get ultra clear glass with a beautiful light-blue edge and more neutral color.
