Product Solution

South Star, through its Glaspedia bird safe glass portfolio, offers advanced solutions that integrate safety, durability, and design flexibility:

1AvianSafe Grey Dot 01

A ceramic frit dot pattern fired onto the glass surface, providing high-contrast visibility while maintaining daylight transmission. The frit is permanently bonded, ensuring resistance to UV, abrasion, and weathering, and complies with ASTM and EN standards.

TF = 25

2AvianSafe BIPV 40

A building-integrated photovoltaic solution that combines renewable energy generation with bird-safe grading. CdTe thinfilmcell patterns deter collisions while supporting vision transparency, energy efficiency and bird-friendly compliance.

TF = 30

3Laminated Glass with Bird-Safe Interlayers

Incorporating Kuraray BirdSecure™ Pro and Eastman Saflex® FlySafe™ 3D Laminate, these laminates embed deterrent patterns within the glass, offering permanent bird protection alongside acoustic insulation, impact resistance, and UV filtering.

TF = from 10 to 29

4Digitally Printed Glass

Using durable Ferro S1de One Series ceramic inks, South Star offers white lines or blue dot patterns fused into the glass, delivering long-term performance and design versatility.

TF = from 17 to 21
