Application and processing

Colour effect glass panes are available in thicknesses from 1 to 6 mm and in dimensions up to 5.80 x 2.55 m in butt joints, or max. 1.08 x 0.8 m as a single pane. The coating can be applied to float glass or borosilicate glass. For exterior use, we manufacture the panes as triple-laminated safety glass (LSG); for interior use also as double-laminated LSG. Colour effect coatings on curved panes or glass bodies (tubes) are possible as well. Coated glass can also be embedded as an inlay in laminated glass.

Success story

Designer lamp collection "Iris": In cooperation with the Berlin company NEO/CRAFT, manufacturer of innovative design objects, we were faced with an extraordinary challenge: the iridescent coating of glass lamp globes. After intensive thinking and elaborate practical tests, we succeeded in achieving a stable, homogeneous colour-effect coating of spherical surfaces. The result: enchanting spherical lamps iridescent with white light.

NEO/CRAFT

A design glass for fascinating objects and interior design

This transparent and at the same time multi-coloured glass inspires designers to come up with surprising, innovative creations. Furniture and objects with or made of dichroic-finished glass offer a charming display of surprising colourfulness, both in residential buildings and in prestigious offices and shops.

The colour effect created by dichroic filters depends on the positions of the light source and the viewer. If both are in front of the filter glass, the reflective effect (and the corresponding colour or colours) dominates. If the viewer is on one side of the filter and the light source on the other, the transmission effect (transparency – and the corresponding colour or colours) dominates.

Choose from more than 20 different complementary colour effects. We can also bring your individual colour ideas to life.

Colour gradients from subtractive colours are also possible, e.g. from orange, yellow and magenta to cyan and blue. The colour range of the gradients, and their length, can be selected as well.
