Heat Absorbing Float Glass

Heat Absorbing Float Glass (HAFG) provides superior performance in reducing solar heat gain while maintaining desirable high visible light transmission. The light blue/green color subdues brightness while providing the highest visible light transmittance (77% for 6.0 mm thickness) of all tinted glass substrates currently available.
