Glasses for restoration
Glasses for use in restoration are highly transparent
flat glasses that have a (slightly)
irregular surface structure, which causes them
to appear as older window glasses.

Glasses from SCHOTT ensure that
historic buildings appear in their former
glamor without having to sacrifice the
advantages of modern workmanship.
Goethe Glass
Thanks to its irregular surface, Goethe
Glass is not only useful in restoring
historic window glazing, but also for
providing outdoor protection. Goethe
Glass can also be used to protect precious
leaded glazing from harmful
environmental effects and bad weather.
Due to the availability of larger glass
thicknesses, Goethe Glass can also make
a valuable contribution towards adding
stability to casements that are to be
renovated.
RESTOVER™ glass for restoration
With its irregular surface structure,
RESTOVER™ resembles the window glass
used in historic buildings around the
turn of the century. It fits in perfectly
with the historic façades of buildings.
Due to the fact that it has a low thickness,
this glass can be easily used with
historic window frames. Its lively surface
structure restores the old charm to
historic buildings and allows them to
reflect their former glory.
RESTOVER™ is also available as
RESTOVER™ Light, which has a slightly
less irregular surface than RESTOVER™.
TIKANA® glass for restoration
TIKANA® was developed especially for
use with Bauhaus style buildings. This
glass meets functional demands in the
same way that it enables a building to
leave an aesthetic impression. Because it
is based on old window glass, TIKANA® fits in well with the overall appearance
of a building. Its slightly irregular surface
underscores the effect of the façade in
a striking manner, giving it a fresh and
lively look.
