Introduction

Premium Glazing for Modern Enclosures

APEX EcoBuilt's Architectural Clear Float Glass is manufactured using the latest molten tin bath technology to ensure perfectly parallel surfaces and distortion-free vision. This versatile substrate serves as the primary component for high-performance insulated glass units (IGUs) and laminated safety glass systems.

Benefits

Why Choose Architectural Clear Float Glass

  • Superior Optical Clarity and Light Transmission

    Provides high levels of natural daylighting, reducing the need for artificial lighting while maintaining true color perception.

  • Excellent Surface Flatness and Uniformity

    The float manufacturing process eliminates optical distortion, making it ideal for large-scale curtain wall applications.

  • Highly Versatile Secondary Processing Options

    Can be easily tempered, heat-strengthened, laminated, or coated with Low-E layers to meet specific project performance requirements.

  • Cost-Effective Structural Performance

    Offers a reliable and economical solution for building envelopes without compromising on structural durability or aesthetic appeal.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical information regarding the application, processing, and shipping of our architectural float glass products.

Can this glass be used for structural frameless applications?
Yes, but it must undergo tempering or lamination processing to meet safety codes for structural or overhead glazing.
What is the maximum size available for export?
While we can produce jumbo sizes, standard export containers typically accommodate sizes up to 2440mm x 3660mm. Larger sizes require specialized flat-rack shipping.
Does clear float glass provide UV protection?
Standard clear float glass blocks some UV, but for high-level protection, we recommend laminating with a PVB interlayer or applying a specialized coating.
How do you ensure the glass doesn't break during international transit?
We use professional-grade seaworthy wooden crates with moisture-proof interlayer powder to prevent scratches and breakage during long-distance shipping.
Is this glass compatible with Low-E coatings?
Absolutely. This float glass serves as the ideal substrate for both hard-coat (pyrolytic) and soft-coat (sputtered) Low-E applications.
