Coated Glass By Guangahou Sky Tiger Tempered Glass Co., Ltd.

If improperly handled the integrity and properties of coated glass can be compromised just as with any normal glass. Therefore all production stages of coated glass, from storage to assembly, require specific handling techniques. Typically, these techniques are not difficult, but but require careful attention on the part of the glazier.

Not all coated glass has the same properties as there exist two different production processes: the pyrolitic, also known as the on-line process, and the vacuum or off-line process. As the name already suggests, the on-line process consists of applying a coating during glass production, also known as hard-coated glass. In the off-line or vacuum process, metal oxide particles are deposited on the cold glass surface by a chain reaction in a vacuum vessel. It is often called 'soft-coating', because the coating is more susceptible to damage than hard-coated glass.
