Further special glasses

Toughened float glass

Environments / Applications

The glass is heated to temperatures above its transformation temperature and then cooled down abruptly. The glass should be cut and sanded before the heat treatment. Subsequent processing is no longer possible. When the glass breaks under heavy load, it breaks down into small blunt glass particles. This glass reduces the risk of injury compared to normal flat glass.

Toughened float glass has been used in automotive construction for front windshieldglases for many decades and effectively prevents cutting and impact injuries. The same service is also provided in the household.

It can be laminated with RD 30® or RD 50® and PVB-foil. This makes the glass much more robust and less susceptible to scratches and breakage.

Cut-to-size panels are available in a wide range of sizes in thicknesses of 4 mm or 5 mm.
They are finished according to your wishes, come with edge processing, and may have decoration or other specialties depending on your requirements.
The clean, simple style of flat ROBAX® panels delivers increased functionality. Fire-viewing panels covers every situation – wood, gas and pellet fireplaces and stoves for inside and out.

PYRAN® / PYRANOVA® / fire-resistant glass

Environments / Applications

is far superior to the traditional types of glass used in fire resistant glass. The secret lies in the interaction between the material and the production process. Manufactured in a micro float facility, which is unique within the world, the fire resistant properties of the special float glass surpass those of soda lime glass by far. The unique combination of borosilicate glass and the float process result in the special glass type PYRAN® with outstanding properties.

Fire resistant glazing with PYRAN® protects against the spread of fire, hot gases and smoke. Even under high thermal loads, the glazing stays transparent, ensuring that the burning building can be safely evacuated. PYRAN® have been internationally approved and are ideally suited for: Facades, partition walls, skylights and rooflights, doors, roofs, smoke screens, lift door glazing, lift shaft.

NEXTREMA® glass-ceramic

Versatile applications

A broad transmission spectrum, especially in the infrared range, makes NEXTREMA® a preferred material for covers of IR patio heaters, electric grills, infrared saunas and cabins, and for industrial processes such as paint drying and soldering operations. Inner lining of high temperature clean room ovens (e.g. display manufacturing). Easy-to-clean cover plate for magnetrons in microwave ovens. Decorative cover plate for dark radiator heaters.
