MONOLITHIC GLASSES
Monolithic glass is produced by flotation. The production process in fact foresees that, after having prepared a bath of molten tin, the molten glass is poured onto it from one end and, floating, flows towards the opposite end, cooling and solidifying and forming a continuous ribbon. This type of glass can be used for the creation of furnishing accessories and objects for the home, as well as for the creation of external and internal windows, but it must be considered first of all as the basic material from which other types of glass are obtained.
SATIN GLASS
The glazing or acid etching of glass is an industrial process, carried out on whole sheets by specialized companies; it is a permanent chemical process that gives the glass a velvety and soft touch, eliminating transparency, but not light transmission.
The frosted glass can be on an extra-clear, clear, bronze and gray base (both in mirror and in float).
LAMINATED GLASS
Laminated glass or composite glass is a safety glass which does not split into multiple pieces when fractured. Upon breaking, an intermediate layer, typically of polyvinylbutyral (PVB), intervenes by keeping the glass layers that surround it together.
