Glass & Processing Terminology

Definitions of terms used in glass specifications, processing drawings and quotations. View Glass Glossary.

Two or more glass panes separated by a sealed cavity. Thermal performance depends on the complete unit, including the panes, coatings, spacer and cavity fill.

Glass with a low-emissivity coating that reduces radiative heat transfer. Evaluate U-value, solar heat gain and visible light transmission for the specified glazing configuration.

An interlayer material used to bond glass plies in laminated glass. Interlayer type and thickness form part of the specified glass build-up.

Computer-controlled machining for glass shapes, holes, notches and cut-outs. Dimensions and processing details are confirmed against the approved drawing before production.
