Pilkington OptAR™ & Pilkington OptAR™ Plus


Pilkington OptAR™ is a single sided, anti-reflective glass with electrically conductive pyrolytic coating.

Pilkington OptAR™ Plus offers all the benefits of Pilkington OptAR™ but provides higher light transmission and is compatible with all touch technologies including projected capacitive.

Pilkington OptAR™ Plus is a high performance, anti-reflective glass for use in computer screens, aircraft transparencies, televisions, flat panels, and as the cover glass for digital displays.

It is ideally suited for projected capacitive and other touch screen technologies.

This high-performance glass reduces reflection to ~0.7% from the coated surface, while providing high light transmittance.

As a result, visual acuity is increased, and displays are easier to read.

Spectrum Calculation Program

Pilkington Spectrum is a Windows-based glass performance model which enables you to quickly and efficiently calculate key properties of a wide range of single glazing and insulating glass units. Also available as an app for mobile devices, you can use Pilkington Spectrum to provide the following information:

  • Light and solar properties (transmittance, reflectance, absorptance, g value, etc.).
  • Centre pane Ug-value.
  • Sound insulation values.
  • Global Warming Potential (GWP), or carbon footprint.
  • Ultra violet (uv) transmittance and colour rendering index (Ra).
  • Other properties (e.g. pendulum body impact resistance, fire resistance, resistance to manual attack, etc.).
