Our Special Applications range covers: Pilkington Microwhite™ - an extremely thin, high-grade low-iron float glass manufactured to precise standards, Pilkington Mirropane™ - high reflective on-line coated glass for one-way vision,

Pilkington Optiwhite™ is the perfect choice for external applications such as facades. One of the most attractive features of Pilkington Optiwhite™ is its ability to achieve greater brilliance and transparency, allowing a clear and true representation of colours when viewed through the glass.

Pilkington OptiView™ in a monolithic application, with the low-reflective coating on one surface, reduces visible light reflectance and allows more visible light to pass through, when compared to clear float glass with 8% light reflectance as standard.

Pilkington AviSafe™ is an on-line coated glass that uses a unique patterned UV enhanced coating to disrupt reflections, providing a visible barrier to birds and preventing collisions.

A range of low-emissivity glasses with a pyrolytic on-line electric conductive coating of special qualities. NSG offers a wide variety of thermal and heated glass performance properties, whilst increasing light transmittance and optimizing electrical conductivity.

The selection and application of blast resistant glass needs specialist advice and there are consultants who offer advice in this area. Like most threats it can be hard to determine the size of the explosion and the proximity to your location.

Our glass systems are developed for use in glass façades, walls or roofs, and also for internal glazing applications.

Applications. Pilkington Mirropane™ is the ideal choice for supermarkets, computer rooms, banks or cash offices, where areas need to be kept under observation or hidden from public scrutiny. It is also appropriate for patient monitoring in hospitals or residential care establishments. Pilkington Mirropane™ is available in 6 mm annealed form.

Glass in its annealed form, framed and intact is not an immediate threat but when it is broken the long shards turn into effective cutting devices with sharp edges and momentum. Fortunately glass can be modified to change these properties and reduce the risk of injury dramatically.
