Starphire Ultra-Clear® Low-Iron Glass - Exterior Float Glass

Achieve brilliant clarity and true-to-life views of the outdoors that conventional clear glass simply can't match.

Starphire Ultra-Clear^® glass by Vitro Architectural Glass (formerly PPG glass) provides an unprecedented option for curtainwall glass applications, offering brilliant clarity and true-to-life views of the outdoors that conventional glass simply can’t match.

No glazing product comes close to the clarity offered by Starphire Ultra-Clear® glass. To optimize transparent facades, curtainwalls, and commercial windows, specify Solarban^® Starphire^® glass for a 2 to 4 percent improvement in visible light transmittance (VLT) compared to coated conventional clear glass.

Starphire^® glass is available in several functional and decorative exterior applications, including dichroic, acid-etched and bird-safe glasses. Vitro partners with Walker Glass to produce AviProtek^® E bird-safe, solar control low-e glass with Solarban^® coatings.

Starphire^® glass provides a combination of function and visual impact for both glass doors and larger entrance features, such as lobbies and reception areas. Starphire^® glass sets a new standard with its unmatched clarity and sparkling blue edge.

For unique spandrel glass applications, true whites, pastels and earth-tone opacifiers can be employed on Starphire^® glass without the green hue often found in ordinary clear glass. Starphire^® glass can also be combined with harmonizing OPACI-COAT-300^® spandrel coatings by ICD High Performance Coatings for an even wider range of colors.

From art galleries and convention centers to corporate offices and shopping malls, skylites made with Starphire^® glass can bring the beauty and brightness of the outdoors into a wide range of interiors, regardless of thickness.

Unlike conventional clear glass, the surface clarity of Starphire Ultra-Clear^® glass becomes more apparent as the glass gets thicker and can transmit ample visible light even at varying thicknesses.

Solarban^® Starphire^® glasses are available through the Vitro Certified^™ Network. Vitro Certified^™ Fabricators can meet tight construction deadlines and accelerate the delivery of replacement glass before, during and after construction. Solarban^® Starphire^® glass must be heat-treated.
