Optiwhite™ Premium Low Iron Glass

Pilkington Optiwhite™ is a premium, low iron glass known for its exceptional clarity and light transmission. Manufactured with reduced iron content, it eliminates the greenish tint common in standard glass, delivering high-quality transparency and true colour representation. Pilkington’s reputation for quality and consistency ensures Optiwhite™ is the go-to choice for projects demanding high visual appeal and precise detail. Adriatic Glass specializes in fabricating this low iron glass, delivering tailored solutions to ensure your designs achieve crystal-clear quality.

Top Features and Benefits of Optiwhite Glass

  • Provides Visible Light Transmission (VLT) of 91% at 6 mm thickness, delivering exceptional visual clarity.
  • Offers a neutral, virtually colourless appearance with reduced green tint—ideal for applications where edge visibility and true colour expression matter.
  • Available in thicknesses ranging from 2 mm to 19 mm, offering flexibility across a wide range of design and performance requirements.
  • Delivers excellent colour purity with minimal distortion, allowing for accurate and vibrant presentation of materials and spaces.
  • Enables high solar heat transmittance, supporting passive solar gain and improving energy efficiency during cooler months.
  • Can be tempered or laminated for enhanced safety and security without compromising its clarity.
