Tinted Float Glass,Colored Float Glass, Tinted Glass

Tinted (or heat absorbing) glass is produced by the float process with the addition of small quantities of metal oxides to color the normally clear glass mix. This coloration is achieved by adding metal oxides at the smelting stage.
The addition of color does not affect the basic properties of the glass, even though the visible light reflectance will be slightly higher than for clear glass. The color density increases with thickness, whereas the visible transmittance decreases with increasing thickness.
Tinted glass reduces solar transmittance by absorbing most of the solar energy - the majority of which is subsequently dissipated to the outside by re-radiation and convection.
Tinted glass is suitable for both lighting and heat insulation in hot areas of building doors and Windows or external walls, as well as train, car, ship windshield and other places. This can play the role of heat insulation and anti-dazzle, and can build a beautiful cool atmosphere. Colored glass is also suitable for mirror plates, furniture, decoration, optical instruments and other fields.
Our comprehensive range of soft natural colors compliments modern building materials to provide an exciting and different appearance for new and existing buildings.
Our range of vibrant colors, excellent performance characteristics and post-production treatment options, all make tinted float glass the ideal choice for architects in any new construction or renovation project.
