SCHOTT MIROGARD®
|
In its standard version, MIROGARD® is recommended for use in picture framing in cases where the main emphasis is on excellent anti-reflective properties in combination with unaltered color rendering and where only standard UV protection is needed. The color of its residual reflection is slightly greenish.
|
SCHOTT MIROGARD® plus
|
If there is no need for splinter protection, but increased UV protection is still important, then MIROGARD® plus is recommended. While it is only 2 mm or 3 mm thick, it uniquely combines protection against UV radiation and outstanding anti-reflective properties with unaltered color rendering. The residual reflection of MIROGARD® plus is bluish in color.
