Float glass is a high-quality, flat, and clear glass used in construction and automotive industries. It is produced by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, resulting in excellent optical properties, thermal and chemical resistance, and versatility for various safety glass applications. Float glass can be further processed to create various types of safety glass, such as tempered glass and laminated glass, which offer enhanced strength and safety features. With its versatility and exceptional performance, float glass is a vital component in modern architecture and manufacturing.

 

Features

  • High-quality and clear glass: Float Glass is a premium quality glass with a clear and transparent appearance, making it ideal for use in applications where visual clarity is essential
  • Manufactured using the float process: Float Glass is produced using the float process, which involves floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, resulting in a uniform and high-quality glass sheet
  • Offers exceptional optical properties: Float Glass has excellent optical properties, such as high transparency and low distortion, which make it perfect for use in applications such as windows, mirrors, and electronic displays
  • Provides thermal and chemical resistance: Float Glass has exceptional thermal and chemical resistance, making it ideal for use in harsh environments where the glass may be exposed to extreme temperatures or corrosive chemicals
  • Can be further processed for safety glass applications: Float Glass can be used in various forms such as monolithic, combined with K&K performance IGU or laminated for safety and noise reduction. It can also be customized to meet specific safety requirements through further processing, including the creation of tempered or laminated safety glass products
