Pilkington Optifloat™ Opal
Pilkington Optifloat™ Opal is a translucent float glass designed to provide light diffusion and a consistent white appearance. The glass allows light to pass through while reducing direct visibility, helping create a softer, more evenly distributed lighting effect in interior spaces.
Manufactured using the float glass process, Pilkington Optifloat™ Opal can be used where designers or specifiers require privacy or visual screening alongside daylight transmission. Its neutral white aesthetic makes it suitable for a range of decorative and functional glazing applications.
The glass can be incorporated into internal glazing systems, partitions, and furniture elements where diffused light and a clean, contemporary appearance are desired.
