What different grades of ultra clear glass?
Apr 28, 2026
There isn't only one type of ultra clear glass and breakdown below:
1.Solar ultra clear pattened glass
It built for durability in the sun, it can resists UV radiation without losing its light transmission over time. It helps extend the life of cover glass in solar panels. It also holds up better against alkalis, midew and general aging compared to regular glass.
2.Ultra clear flat glass(Also called crystal glass)
It really shows off clarity. It has higher visible light transmission and transparency than standard clear float glass. UV transmittance is low that blocks a good amount of UV damage. Clarity is obviously better than ordinary glass. The light transmittance typically more than 91.5%.
One more to look
You might also know ultra clear glass seperated into 2 grades: Architectural grade and furniture grade. The furniture grade is the better one, it often marked with "UHA" on label. The classification isn't really a contradiction of above 2 types- It's more about the different quality standards for different applications.
