INNOVATION
First cold. Then hot. And then cold again. Large temperature fluctuations can often bring a material to the brink. It can bend, break or even shatter. It’s these factors that designers have to consider when developing new products.
SCHOTT’s response is a very special glass-ceramic: NEXTREMA® – the “next extreme material”
“A product idea is only as good as the material employed. You can develop a great design, and in the end, physics put a spanner in the works. SCHOTT’s glass-ceramic gives us the opportunity to actually realize exceptional ideas.”
Mike James, Design & Innovation Director, Morphy Richards, UK
NEXTREMA® glass-ceramic lets new ideas flow freely. This is how innovative designs are born, combining function and aesthetic.
Material thickness
Withstands heat, cold and quick temperature swings
A great enabler for applications such as infrared emitters and cabins.
Chemically and mechanically resistant, making it very strong
Glass-ceramic is versatile. In the future, this material will be found in many applications we are not even dreaming of today.
Let’s explore the many options this very special material has to offer.
