OKACOLOR™Digitally printed glass

At a glance

OKACOLOR™ digitally printed glass is an innovative product using a specially developed glass coating technique that allows the complete reproduction of black and white or multi-colored images or solid color coating of the glass surface. Due to the high quality of the OKACOLOR™ coating, the visual results are exceptional with excellent color consistency, depth, brilliance and contrast maintained.

Depending on the build-up of the coating, which in turn depends on the graphic arrangement, OKACOLOR™ digitally printed glass can be supplied as a safety tempered monolithic single glazing, in a laminated glazing, or insulating glass.
OKACOLOR™ coatings include inorganic pigments which are not fused into the glass as is the case with screen-printed fritted glass. However, excellent adhesion is achieved for full surface coatings, and the scratch resistance is similar to that of colors applied to glass by the screen printing process.

Key facts

  • Amazing color effects
  • Multi-colored images or solid color coating on glass surface
  • Excellent color consistency
  • High contrast
  • Durable due to the high quality coating
  • Easy maintenance

Technical data

Technical Data

The thermal transmission (U-value) for OKACOLOR™ digitally printed glass will generally correspond with that for an unprinted insulating glass unit of the same basic configuration, with double glazing able to achieve values as low as 1.0 W/m2K (0.176 BTU/hr/ft2/°R) and triple glazing down to 0.5 W/m2K (0.09 Btu/hr/ft2/°R).

U-values refer to European Standard EN 673. Please contact our sales department for the corresponding ASHRAE values.

Light and solar energy transmission will depend upon the nature of the OKACOLOR™ applications selected, and we will be able to provide this data once these aspects have been determined.
