Float glass is a sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and various low melting point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces. The present declaration is conducted for 1 m2 of average float glass manufactured at Taloja and Roorkee locations of AIS. Clear float glass is a basic soda-lime-silicate glass produced using the float procedure to be used in building, furniture and industrial applications. The low iron content of clear float glass reduces the level of green coloring so that the appearance is clearer and more neutral. This helps to increase the level of natural daylight and reduces the need for artificial lighting. It is available in a range of thicknesses, from 3 mm to 12 mm Tinted float glass is a body tinted soda-lime-silicate glass produced using the float procedure. It is meant to be used in building & industrial applications. Tinted glass has a colored appearance, as well as basic solar control properties. There are 5 colors in the tinted float glass range: Dark grey, Aqua blue, Bronze,Dark Green (Cool Green) and Dark blue (Royal Blue). It is available in a range of thicknesses, from 3 mm to 12 mm.
