A super-transparent glass is a glass with reduced iron content. The
amount of iron in this glass is 10 times less than normal. Due to this
composition, low-iron glass is devoid of turquoise hue, which is typical of
ordinary glass. The glass with reduced iron content conveys the colors better
without distorting their shade.
The properties of super-clear glass determine the scope of its
application. It is obvious, that such a glass is great when its beautiful
appearance is important. It is used to create doors, shop windows, and
aquariums, as well as for situations where the glass should be thicker but
still look beautiful. Indeed, as the thickness of ordinary glass increases, the
greenish-blue tint becomes more noticeable.
Shop windows and showcases are an important application for low-iron
glass. On the glass display shelves, all the items look beautiful and
attractive, while the showcase itself does not distract attention. Low-iron
glass perfectly transmits light without distorting the appearance of the
presented product. In addition, the shop window will look elegant itself and
will not irritate with the turquoise edges.
Such a showcase or shop window will look especially beautiful in case of
the bright lighting. It is ideal for the demonstration of various sparkling
jewelry. It will seem to visitors that there is no glass at all because nothing
will prevent them from viewing the goods.
