French green float glass is particularly sought after for its aesthetic qualities. Its natural green tint introduces a soothing element to environments, evoking a sense of calm and tranquility. This makes it an ideal choice for residential buildings, offices, and public spaces alike. When used in large windows or glass facades, it allows natural light to filter through, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere while subtly tinting the light that enters.
Key Features of Tempered Insulated Glass Units
The float glass production process begins with the melting of raw materials, including silica sand, soda ash, and limestone, at high temperatures. This molten mixture is then floated on top of molten tin, allowing the glass to spread evenly and form a continuous sheet. As the glass moves through the annealing lehr—a controlled cooling chamber—it gradually solidifies and is cut into standardized sheet sizes.
