FLOAT GLASS - NOVA FLOAT

Float Glass is superior in quality when compared to other flat glass and has the unique characteristics of excellent surface finishing, flatness, uniform thickness, high optical quality and bright appearance. The float process was invented in 1952.

Float technology has rapidly replaced plate and sheet facilities worldwide in recent decades. Float glass derives its name from the float process used where the molten glass floats on the top of molten tin.

Available thicknesses in mm and inches:
 4, 5, 5.5. 6. 8, 10 and 12 mm
5/32, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 1/2 inches

LAMINATED GLASS - NOVA LAM

Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered. In the event of breaking, it is held in place by an interlayer, typically of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), between its two or more layers of glass. At least 2 Glass Panels and 1 interlayer is necessary to produce Laminated Glass in a variety of combinations, including the following:
(44.1 -  44.6)
(55.1 - 55.6)
(66.1 -  66.6)
(88.1 - 88.6)
(1010.1 - 1010.4)
we supply laminated glass with PVB in clear, grey, translucent. other PVB colors can be provided upon request
Laminated glass is ideal for providing both impact resistance, safety and security since it may break on impact but the glass is held in place thus preventing injury or intrusion.
