Types of materials

In our offer you will find products made of various materials, depending on environmental conditions (temperature, pressure, aggressive media). Choosing the right material is crucial for a particular application. The most important groups of materials, which are used for glass products are:

• soda lime glass (window glass) -  widely available, inexpensive, work temperature up to 150 °C,
• borosilicate glass - particularly useful for applications in aggressive environments (acids, alkalines, water vapor), work temperature up to 280 °C,
• aluminosilcate glass - with properties similar to borosilicate glass, but with better chemical resistance and higher permissible operating temperature of up to 600 °C
• ceramic glass (glass-ceramic) - resistant to thermal shock, work temperatures up to 750 °C
• quartz glass - a broad-spectrum light transmittance (from ultraviolet to infrared), while for temperatures up to 1100 °C,
• sapphire products- work temperature up to 2000 °C.
