Among all types of glass, clear glass remains the most widely used thanks to its unmatched transparency and versatility. It is the essential material for countless applications, including windows, doors, tabletops, and shower enclosures, making it a cornerstone of both residential and commercial design.

The industry standard for producing high-quality flat clear glass is the float glass process. This advanced method melts raw materials—primarily silica sand, soda ash, and limestone—in a furnace at temperatures reaching 1500°C. The molten mixture is then floated over a bath of molten tin, forming a perfectly flat and uniform ribbon. Through a controlled cooling process known as annealing, internal stresses are relieved, resulting in glass with exceptional clarity, strength, and a distortion-free finish.

Clear glass is available in a wide range of standard thicknesses to meet diverse structural and design requirements.
