SMALL piece 8x12in (No BOXING fee)

SCHOTT GOETHEGLAS reproduces the irregular surface structure of windows found in buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries. Schott uses the historical Fourcault process to produce colorless, machine-drawn glass that remains faithful to the original aesthetics and stunning period characteristics.

ADVANTAGES:

Variety of processing options available to produce laminated glass, tempered glass or insulated glass units.
Innovative functions suit contemporary needs for thermal, solar, UV and noise control.

*****************

Architectural Glass is made by Pilkington, Vasa & Glaverbel, and features bright textures on clear glass. This glass offers plenty of light transmission with a variety of levels of obscurity. Most Architectural Glass is 3 to 4 mm thick (about 1/8 to 5/32”).

SCHOTT RESTORATION GLASS FAQs:

1. What are restoration glass variants and how do they compare to normal window glass?
SCHOTT restoration glass variants are specifically designed to offer accurate glazing solutions for historical buildings according to their date of origin. They offer the typical surface characteristics of different historical eras that can be integrated into the modern day requirements for insulated and laminated safety glasses.
Compared to normal window glass, SCHOTT restoration glass offers state of the art technology in a historically correct design.

2. What colour are SCHOTT restoration glass variants?
SCHOTT restoration glass variants are colourless and particularly low in iron oxide. They are therefore highly pure and do not have the "green tint" typically found in conventional float glass. SCHOTT restoration glass has a high transmission of visible light making it ideal for glazing buildings where naturally bright internal conditions are important.

3. What are the differences between the different SCHOTT restoration glasses?
SCHOTT restoration glass has the typical tensile strength of the manufacturing process. In addition, they are - depending on the product - more or less distorted.

    RESTOVER® light: slightly uneven surface
    RESTOVER®: irregular surface, wavy and expressive
    RESTOVER® PLUS (#AG 107): strongly structured surface with distinct waviness
    GOETHEGLAS (#AG 111): full of character and irregular

4. How are SCHOTT restoration glass variants manufactured?
SCHOTT restoration glass variants are manufactured using the traditional Fourcault process. The glass is drawn vertically upwards from the liquid melt through a nozzle via a drawing shaft. At the end of the drawing shaft, the glass is cut to sheet size.
Certain variations in surface structures are also possible and permissible within a product/plate.

5. What does tensile strength mean?
By vertically pulling the glass mass through the nozzle, the glass becomes distorted in parallel to the direction of drawing. When viewing through the glass, this distortion is more noticeable if the glass is installed vertically as opposed to horizontally. Sampling is also recommended here.

6. Does SCHOTT restoration glasses variants have bubbles, knots, stones or similar?

Such glass characteristics are possible due to the melting conditions and are permissible within certain specifications. However, they do not protrude from the glass surface.

7. Is thermal tempering possible?
SCHOTT restoration glass variants can be thermally tempered. Our application technology department will be happy to assist you with detailed questions. Click here to open our contact form.

8. Is it possible to produce laminated glass?
Processing to laminated glass using conventional PVB films is possible. A thicker film is required to compensate for thickness variations. If a counter pane of float glass is used, the optical impression of the restoration glass diminishes when viewed through. We recommend sampling. If special UV or IR filter films are used for lamination, SCHOTT restoration glass is ideal for glazing museums or sacral buildings with increased lighting requirements in connection with monument protection. Soundproofing foils contribute to the reduction of noise pollution in buildings.

9. Can restoration glass be used for insulating glass?
Insulating glass can be produced using restoration glass. As a rule, the outer pane of the insulating glass is designed as a restoration glass, the inner pane is made of white glass or float glass, if necessary with a thermal insulation coating. Selected restoration glass can also be provided with direct sun protection layers to improve thermal insulation in summer. If 4 mm wide spacers are used in insulating glass, insulating glass with a total thickness of approx. 10 mm can be built.
