Glass - Glass Washbasins
Glass is a wonderful natural material – always exclusive and extremely versatile to shape and design for varied applications, including those in the home and furniture sectors.
Glass is also a very stable, resilient and durable material. Modern architecture, with its imposing facades, would be inconceivable or even impossible without glass, and the same applies to interior fittings in terms of partitions and doors. Modern furniture design is essentially shaped by glass – for frontages, display cases, floors, covers and washbasins.
| Glass as a raw material : | For washbasins it is transparent, coloured by coating on the rear side or dyed throughout. |

| Standard float glass: | Slightly greenish and – with a white coating on the rear side – turquoise. |
| Optical glass: | Clear, colourless and transparent, this glass can take many different colours thanks to coatings on the rear side. |
| Opal glass: | A crystalline quartz-based material with an especially homogeneous character. |
| Surfaces: | Smooth, satin-finished, structured. |
| Material thicknesses: | 12, 15, 19 mm |
The latest production machines and processes allow detailed control and automation of the manufacturing processes with lower cost structures.
