Diamond Clear Glass (Low Iron Clear Glass)

Diamond Clear Glass (Low Iron Clear Glass)

Hi IDs, how is your holidays ? i hope it would recharged you fully and that you're ready for 2013 challenges. 

In this edition, i would like to inform you about low iron glass or also known as Low Iron Glass, this kind of glass is increasing popular recently as it offers more to design compare to normal / regular clear glass.

Regular clear glass which available in the market is actually not clear enough, you could notice slight greenish tint especially when viewing the edges, this would become more obvious on thicker clear glass. This regular clear glass used in many applications, such as : façade glass, shop front/window, partition, glass table tops, entry doors, mirror, painted glass, or display cases.

However, there are increasing requirement of extra clear glass which would not distort the true colors for applications such as shop front/window, display cases, painted glass, and mirrors. Especially for high end shops, the principles are getting more aware to display their products in the truest colors without any distortion of colors caused by the greenish tint of glass display cases. Similarly, architects and interior designers also started to requesting painted glass using extra clear glass, ie : white painted glass, which can provide clarity and pure white color for interior decoration.

Greenish tint in regular clear glass is caused by iron oxides which naturally contains in silica sand, the main material to produce glass. By reducing this iron content will be resulted in reduce greenish tint and increase in clarity, light transmission, and brightness. Thus, extra clear glass is also well known as Low Iron Clear Glass.

In Indonesia, Asahimas is promoting low iron clear glass under the DIAMOND CLEAR brand since 2010. Diamond clear can be tempered, laminated, cut, polished, etc in the same way as regular clear glass.
