PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONPARSOL® is a body-tinted float glass produced by float technology, providing perfectly flat and parallel surfaces. It offers a coloured appearance with low light reflection and is intended for architectural and decorative glazing where aesthetic colour or simple solar control is required.
BENEFITS & APPLICATIONSPARSOL® adds colour to interior and exterior glazing while maintaining low surface reflection. Typical applications include:
- Interior decoration, fittings and furnishings
- External single or insulated glass units for facades and overhead glazing
APPEARANCEDesign glazing options and processing instructions for PARSOL® follow the same guidelines as clear float glass. Depending on application or location, heat treatment may be required to reduce the risk of thermal breakage.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONPARSOL® is processed like standard float glass; tempering or heat-strengthening can be applied when necessary. Products are available in several colours and thicknesses depending on region:
- PARSOL® GREEN
- PARSOL® BRONZE
- PARSOL® DARK GREY
- PARSOL® BLUE
- PARSOL® DARK BLUE
PERFORMANCESpectrophotometric data are provided for main PARSOL® references in 6 mm thickness. Mechanical and acoustic properties are equivalent to clear float glass of the same thickness. For complete performance sets (other thicknesses, IGU or laminated configurations), consult the glass performance calculator (Calumen®).
