The glass in the manufacturing line always comes as a flat sheet but they can be bent according to the requirement.

Our glass products are durable and we maintain the highest standards with after installation service. Now, let’s see the earliest history of glass. It dates back to more than 4000 years ago in Mesopotamia where articles made of glass were used. Although, it is believed that they copied glass-objects from Egypt from where glass products originated. Although, there are archaeological evidences that proved that first glass products were made in northern part of Syria, Egypt or Mesopotamia. We can find earliest glass objects were beads and believed that they were actually by-products of metal work or by-products of faience. Glass was naturally produced from volcanic glass obsidian and were used in the Stone-Age period to make tools like cutting glass and were also traded to different places. Glass was used by people in the Anglo-Saxon age to manufacture beads, vessels, jewelry and windows. We can find glass use in European history when Romans started using glass in their architecture and clear glass was invented around AD 100 in Alexandria. Glass industry established in Venice at the end of 13th Century during the period of Crusades.   In the United States, the evidence of glass work has been found in Jamestown (an island in Virginia). Glass panes were produced there in 1608 but most of the glass products were imported from England. Use of glass in modern days has increased in both household and commercial constructions. Bear Glass is a leading glass fabricator in New York producing custom, high-quality glass products. We also produce stained glass, which is a kind of art glass. In the history of stained glass, we have exclusively applied the term with windows in Churches. We at Bear Glass produce custom stained glass for you.

]]> Common Mirror Resilvering Questions https://bearglassblog.com/common-mirror-resilvering-questions/ Tue, 18 Mar 2014 19:08:01 +0000 http://bearglassblog.com/?p=2408 Frequently asked Mirror Re-silvering questions Q: Is re-silvering needed? A: Sometimes mirrors appear to be dirty or streaked on the front surface. The silvering on the back has no problem. So clean the mirror surface properly to check that it has no damage on the front surface. Q: Is it possible to re-silver a small portion of the mirror? A: Yes, it is possible to re-silver a portion of your mirror to re-silver. Unfortunately, satisfactory results are not guaranteed and are not always achieved by doing so. If you want the best result a complete re-silvering of the mirror is recommended. Q: How long does Re-silvering last? A: The re-silvering should last for decades. However, we can’t control the conditions in which mirrors are hung or mounted. Bathroom mirrors or other mirrors subject to excessive moisture has higher chances of getting disturbed quicker than mirrors in the bed room or other places. Q: What is used to silver the surface of the mirror? A: In Earlier mirror making silver was used to coat the glass surface. But in more recent times sputtering powdered aluminum or other compounds have been used in the place of silver. Therefore today, this process is also known as aluminizing. Which makes this service more cost effective. Q: What if the edge of the m irror has Deterioration? A: This is very common, frequently occurring on bathroom mirrors where moisture has puddled on the edges. It might not have been installed or sealed properly in the first place. If the mirror is large simple rectangle without bevels it will be cheaper to buy a new mirror than to have it re-silvered. One solution for the problem is to cut off the damaged area and then remount the mirror. Bear Glass also provides mirror cutting services for any thickness. Q: Does Silver Paint touch up works as re-silvering? A: No, It doesn’t. Using paint for re-silvering a mirror will get disappointing results. Mirror re-silvering process does involve many steps and techniques that is not possible at home unless you have the proper knowledge.

We feel that by offering this product line we are able to offer the clear choice when it comes to colorless float glass.Why do we say this?Pilkington Optiwhite Float Glass virtually eliminates the green cast inherent in standard float glass, particularly noticeable in thicker glasses.When true color is of paramount importance, Pilkington Optiwhite™ Float Glass is the perfect solution. Noticeably clearer than standard clear float glass, the colorlessness of Optiwhite Float Glass is especially apparent when it is combined with white or light colors, and when exposed, polished edges are in view. As a result, Optiwhite Glass offers enhanced clarity and aesthetics for everything from photovoltaic modules and solar collectors to showroom and furniture applications.

Low iron glass is ultra clear and provides a higher degree of transparency compared to clear float glass. This optimum clarity is achieved by removing most of the iron oxide content used to produce glass. The virtual absence of color makes low iron glass the natural choice when neutral color and clarity count. Low iron glass belongs to a group of extremely clear glass with minimal green cast. High light transmission and brilliant surfaces make this glass ideal for colored glass applications, frame-less glass installations such as shower doors, glass doors and glass table tops. Low iron glass utilizes a raw material formula that increases light transmission and neutrality while reducing the greenish tint in clear glass that is most apparent when viewed from the edge. The result is pure, sparkling and very clear glass. Low Iron glass is a high quality and ultra clear float glass, also called extra clear glass. The transparency of low iron glass can reach 91%. Low iron glass also can be done different deep processes same as float glass, such as, tempered, curved, laminated, insulated, and so on. Low Iron glass is mainly used for photo electricity conversion, solar energy, top-grade buildings, decorative glass, top-grade furniture, imitating crystal product, special type buildings, and so on.
