AMIRAN® the glass you can't see



111 South Wacker, Chicago, IL
AMIRAN® is an optical interference anti-reflective glass, dip-coated on both sides, with a residual reflection of approximately 1%. In cases where there is a drastic difference in the level of light in front of and behind ordinary glass, it is usually quite difficult to view objects outside from the inside. In order to avoid these negative effects, more and more users are turning to AMIRAN®, the nearly invisible glass from SCHOTT.



AMIRAN® - The most important advantages at one glance

  • Fifteen-year track record; proven in hundreds of installations worldwide

  • Triple dip coating and high temperature processing ensure maximum durability

  • High light transmission; 98% vs 91% for ordinary float glass

  • Can be installed in any frame or glazing system suitable for regular window glass

  • Can be tempered or laminated for safety glazing

  • Cuts cooling costs because less lighting is required to overcome glare

  • Cuts construction costs; there's no need to provide awnings or tilted glazings to control glare

  • Less fading of displayed items, thanks to reduced UV transmission

  • Increases sales appeal of displayed products; also allows entire store interior to become part of general window display

  • Greater visibility in monitoring applications, resulting in greater accuracy and safety

  • Enhances the view in restaurants throughout the day; eliminates the glare which often occurs at certain morning, afternoon, and evening hours

  • Displayed colors appear truer
