Float Glass

This is the basic glass that was available for use before the discovery of the float process. It is no longer in use for most architectural uses, but is used in glass art to create sculptures and decorative display items. Float glass or annealed glass is a term for perfectly flat, clear glass manufactured by the float process invented in the UK by Sir Alastair Pilkington in 1959. It is the most basic type of glass and forms the basis for several fabricated glasses that are used in construction.

Tinted Glass

Colorants are added to the normal clear float during manufacture in order to achieve tinting and solar-radiation absorption properties. The color is achieved upon the addition of a mineral admixture. Tinting reduces heat penetration in building.

Reflective Glass

Glass that is coated to reflect radiation striking the surface of the glass, thereby reducing solar heat gain, is called reflective glass. The major application for reflective glass is on exteriors, for façade glazing in commercial, educational and residential buildings.

Low-e Glass

Low-e glasses are innovative coated glass that has the unique ability of preventing heat loss in cold weather while reducing heat intake in warm weather. It is popular in residential, commercial and industrial applications where thermal control is a priority.

Mirrors

A mirror is a type of glass that has a highly reflective surface and is used for seeing reflections. Mirror have been used for centuries, especially hand mirrors, and have a wide range of application. In architecture, it is mostly used for decorative purposes, in furniture, panels, doors, etc. as well as to create spatial effects.

Special Type - SGG Planilaque Evolution

SGG Planilaque Evolution lacquered glass is intended exclusively for interior furnishing and decoration. This new generation lacquered can be used in interior applications, including damp and humid rooms, wall or furniture cladding. The scope of its application is vastly widened with the available choice of brilliant, deep lacquered colors, combined with the durability of glass. The manufacturing process produces a highly durable lacquer into one of its faces. Once installed a material require a low maintenance since the lacquer coating is protected by the glass. Saint- Gobain manufacturing specifications also ensure its resistance to discoloration, humidity and chemicals.
