Thickness: 5 and 8mm
Glass substrate: Clear or low iron single glass
Possible glass make up: Tempered pattern glass, laminated pattern glass and/or mirror, IGU
Applications & Performance
Typical applications include bathroom windows, where pattern glass maintains privacy while admitting natural light. It is also used for interior partitions to define spaces without full opacity, and for shower enclosures, where textured surfaces add safety and design character.
Bathroom Windows
- Function: Provides privacy while allowing natural light transmission.
- Performance: Textured surface diffuses light; laminated option available for safety compliance.
Interior Partitions
- Function: Defines spaces without full opacity, adds decorative character.
- Performance: Wide range of patterns ensures design flexibility; compatible with common glazing systems.
Shower Enclosures
- Function: Enhances privacy and safety in wet environments.
- Performance: Textured finish reduces visibility and improves slip resistance when laminated.
Decorative Glass (Color Interlayer / Mirror Backing)
- Function: Expands aesthetic options with tinted effects or reflective depth.
- Performance: Tested for durability and bonding with interlayers; suitable for feature walls and decorative façades.
Laminated Safety Glass
- Function: Meets structural and safety requirements for interior and exterior use.
- Performance: Improved impact resistance; compliant with building codes and safety standards.
Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) Panels
- Function: Integrates privacy and decorative texture into energy-generating façade systems.
- Performance: Textured surface assists in light diffusion and glare control; laminated construction ensures structural safety; compatibility verified with PV interlayers.
All products are manufactured under strict quality control and tested for compatibility with common glazing systems. South Star Glass pattern glass provides a reliable solution that combines privacy, safety, and decorative versatility, making it a practical choice for a wide range of architectural applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What thicknesses are available for pattern glass?
Pattern glass is available in two standard thicknesses: 5mm and 8mm. Both options are suitable for a variety of architectural applications including bathroom windows, shower enclosures, and interior partitions.
Q
What glass substrate options are offered?
The glass substrate can be either clear glass or low iron glass. Low iron glass offers higher light transmission and reduced green tint, making it ideal for applications where color neutrality and clarity are important.
Q
Can pattern glass be used in safety-critical applications?
Yes. Pattern glass can be processed as tempered or laminated glass, both of which meet safety compliance requirements. Laminated pattern glass in particular improves impact resistance and is compliant with relevant building codes and safety standards.
Q
Is pattern glass compatible with insulated glass units (IGU)?
Yes. Pattern glass can be incorporated into Insulated Glass Units (IGU), allowing it to be used in energy-efficient window and façade applications while maintaining its privacy and decorative properties.
Q
Can pattern glass be used in BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaic) systems?
Yes. Pattern glass is compatible with BIPV systems. Its textured surface assists with light diffusion and glare control, while the laminated construction ensures structural safety. Compatibility with PV interlayers has been verified through testing.
Q
What decorative options are available with pattern glass?
Pattern glass can be combined with color interlayers or mirror backing to expand aesthetic possibilities. These options introduce tinted effects or reflective depth, making them suitable for feature walls, decorative façades, and other high-design interior and exterior applications.
