1. High Optical Clarity
Ultra-clear transparency: Low iron content minimizes the greenish tint typically seen in standard glass, resulting in crystal-clear clarity.This makes it ideal for Decorative Architectural and Commercial architectural applications where visual transparency is crucial
Light Transmission: Offers up to 91% or higher light transmission, which ensures optimal brightness and clarity without the distortion or color shift found in regular glass.
2. Strength and Durability
Increased Bending Strength: The tempering process significantly enhances the bending strength of the glass, making it 120-180 MPa, much stronger than untreated regular float glass.
Impact Resistance: Low iron tempered glass is 4-5 times stronger than standard glass, offering superior impact resistance. It’s less likely to break under heavy impact and, if it does break, it shatters into small, rounded pieces, reducing the risk of injury.
3. Thermal Resistance
High Temperature Resistance: Low iron tempered glass can withstand temperatures up to 300-400°C for extended periods, making it suitable for environments with fluctuating or elevated temperatures.
Thermal Shock Resistance: The glass is highly resistant to thermal shock, able to handle rapid temperature changes (up to 200°C-250°C) without cracking
4. Safety Features
Shatter resistant: When tempered glass breaks, it shatters into small, blunt-edged pieces, reducing the risk of injury compared to regular glass, which can break into sharp, jagged shards.
Meets Safety Standards: Low iron tempered glass typically complies with safety standards such as ANSI Z97.1, ISO 9001, and ASTM C1036 for durability and impact safety.
5. Improved Aesthetics
Minimal Color Distortion: The absence of iron in the glass ensures a cleaner, more neutral appearance, making it ideal for architectural applications, high-end furniture, and display cases where the look of the glass is important.
Elegant and Modern Look: The high clarity and smooth surface enhance the overall aesthetic of spaces, contributing to a modern and sleek design in residential and commercial buildings.
6.Certificates
Suitable for use as a safety glass as defined by consumer product safety association 16CFR 1201, ansiz 97.1 1984 and BS6262.
Conforms to CCC, AS/NZS2208-1996, EN12150-1, and ASTM C1048. All work done on glass (beveling, cutting, bending, etc) must be done before tempering.
Curtain Walls and Facades: Low iron tempered glass is widely used in modern building facades and curtain walls due to its high transparency, which enhances the aesthetic value of buildings while maximizing natural light penetration.
Windows and Doors glass: It is used in both residential and commercial architectural for clear, safe,and impact resistance windows and doors. The glass helps create sleek, modern looks with enhanced light transmission.
Skylights: Low iron tempered glass is ideal for skylights as it allows maximum sunlight to penetrate into buildings, making interiors brighter while offering strong impact resistance.
Glass Railings: Tempered glass is used in railings for stairs, balconies, and terraces. It provides a sleek, unobstructed view while ensuring safety due to its strength.
Glass Roofs: Used in glass roofs of commercial or high-end residential buildings for both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity.
Glass Tabletops: Low iron tempered glass is used in high-end furniture like dining tables, coffee tables, and desks to provide clarity and strength. Its clear nature enhances the visual appeal of furniture.
Shelves and Display Units: Perfect for display shelves and showcases in homes, stores, and museums, as its transparency allows the products or items to be viewed without distortion.
Office Partitions: Tempered glass partitions are often used in office spaces, lobbies, and modern homes. The transparency helps create open, airy spaces while providing functional separation between areas
Oven Doors: Low iron tempered glass is used in oven doors because it can withstand high temperatures and thermal shock, providing safety and durability in cooking environments.
Cooktops and Stove Tops: Used in modern cooktops and stove tops for both functionality and aesthetics, allowing for clear visibility and resistance to heat.
Fireplace Screens: Used as the glass component in fireplaces, low iron tempered glass is ideal because of its high resistance to both heat and impact.
Showcases and Display Cases: Low iron tempered glass is often used in retail environments for display cases and showcases due to its clarity and impact resistance. It is perfect for displaying high-value items like jewelry, electronics, and artworks.
Shop Windows: Large display windows for stores use low iron tempered glass for a clean, clear view, contributing to an elegant appearance and improving the customer experience.
Exterior Architectural Glass: Low iron tempered glass is used in various public structures like airports, stations, and bus shelters for its impact strength and clarity. The glass is also used for public transport windows and safety glazing in areas requiring high transparency and durability.
Glass Walls and Architectural Glass for Partitions: In hospitals, hotels, and other commercial spaces, tempered glass partitions and walls create a visually appealing space with minimal visual distortion while providing safety.
Sun room and agricultural sun shed: full penetration of sunlight in the case of wind protection.
Surface Treatments:
Edge Treatment: Flat edge, rounded edge, or beveled edge
Drilling: Available for mounting or installation purposes
Sandblasting: Can be sandblasted for decorative finishes
Brushed Finish: Available for a matte surface texture
Coatings: UV protection, anti-reflective, or other coatings available upon request
Packaging: used wooden boxes or cases, the cases should be easy loading, unloading and transportation. Each case needs to be packed with stuff of the same thickness and size.
Q: The difference between ordinary tempered white glass and low iron tempered glass?
A: Summary of Key Differences:
Feature | Ordinary Tempered White Glass | Low Iron Tempered Glass |
Iron Content | Higher (0.1%-0.3%) | Very low (under 0.1%) |
Appearance | Slightly greenish tint,especially at edges | Clear,color-neutral,virtually colorless |
Optical Clarity | Lower transparency and light transmittance | Higher transparency and light transmittance (91%or more) |
Strength & Durability | Similar to low iron tempered glass, strong impact resistance | Superior clarity with similar strength and impact resistance |
Thermal Shock Resistance | Good (300-400℃) | Good (300-400℃) |
Applications | General building,windows, furniture | High-end architectural glazing,luxury furniture,automotive,solar panels |
Cost | Less expensive | More expensive due to higher purity materials |
Q: How do consumers distinguish between tempered white glass and low-iron tempered glass?
A: Ordinary float tempered white glass and low iron tempered glass have obvious differences in color and light transmission, and can be distinguished by observing the side of the glass block, the side of ordinary tempered white glass is green and dark, while the side of low iron tempered glass is clear white and blue.
