Glass-ceramic BBQ applications | SCHOTT North America

A perfect view into the grill

A transparent NEXTREMA^® glass-ceramic window or lid allows the user to see what's happening inside the BBQ without opening up the lid and crashing internal temperatures. It also adds a sophisticated design element to the overall look of a grill. The extremely versatile material qualities of SCHOTT NEXTREMA^® glass-ceramic can help enhance BBQ grill performance or design.

For your long-lasting and almost maintenance-free burning

Technical properties

The transparent glass-ceramic allows a user to receive visual flame response.
In comparison to sheet metal NEXTREMA^® glass-ceramic is non-corrosive and can withstand temperatures up to 925 °C, meaning a much longer lifespan than current burner shield materials.
Its non-porous surface means that drippings can burn off at high temperatures, making cleanup and maintenance almost non-existent.
