Ordinary glass is green with envy.
Glass is pretty clear, right? Take a look at a sheet of
"clear" glass from the edge - it will be a pretty deep
shade of green. While normal glass is fine for the great majority
of applications, there are times when having better clarity and
color accuracy is important, and that's where Starphire glass
comes in. Its special low-iron low-lead formula makes for
very clear glass, with only a slight bluish tint.
Starphire® Ultra-Clear Glass by PPG
 Starphire provides commercial designers with a new and
unprecedented option for all their vision glass applications. For
entire building facades or retail showroom windows, to maximize
light transmission and bring an uncommon brightness and clarity to
the interior, no commercially available glazing product comes
close to the pristine personality of Starphire glass.
Starphire vision glass is clearly remarkable:
- Maximum transparency - 5% higher Visible Light
Transmittance than ordinary clear glass
- High fidelity color transmission - undistorted view of
exterior
- New level of visual brightness and clarity
- Jewel-like brilliance and character
- Easily fabricated to required specifications
For vision glazings in which enhanced energy performance is
required, Starphire glass can be combined with solar control Low-E
coatings to satisfy energy requirements while maintaining the
unique ultra-clear visual character of Starphire glass.
Starphire glass is available in thicknesses from 2.5 mm to 12
mm. Contact us for details.
