FLABEG Technical Glass - (Almost) Everything Is Possible.
In FLABEG's Technical Glass Division, we have set ourselves a challenging task: we want to show that glass has a virtually infinite number of possible applications. Many have already proved themselves in practice but frequently have to be modified to comply with new requirements, while others are still waiting to be discovered. Science and Fiction: The outstanding versatility of this fascinating material in conjunction with new technologies such as the thin-layer technique will demonstrate what can still be done with glass in the future. FLABEG Technical Glass - an exciting interplay of many factors: research and development, our customers' problems and requirements, our employees' ideas and, of course, the challenges that will face us in the future. Making glass intelligent means giving the material new properties. The type of coating is the key factor here, because the process conceals an enormous amount of intensive research and development work by our teams. The electrical and optical properties of glass can be varied through the choice of suitable coating materials and layer thicknesses. This opens up completely new areas of application. Flat and curved glass can be coated with microscopically thin layers of metal or metal oxides in a high vacuum or by dipping. The result is that the glass can be made absorbent, reflecting, non-reflecting, transparent, colored, electrically conductive, heat insulating, electrochromic - whatever you want.
