Channel Glass
Channel Glass: A translucent U-shaped cast glass produced in several widths ranging from 9" - 19" and lengths to 23 feet. The basic ingredients are - sand, lime, soda, and carefully recycled glass. The mix is combined in a highly sophisticated oxygen-fired melting furnace to emerge as a ribbon of high quality molten glass. It is then drawn over a series of steel rollers to form a continuous glass channel of specific dimensions and surface finish. The endless ribbon of channel glass is carefully cooled and cut prior to custom processing and packaging for dispatch.
The reason channel glass works so well for day lighting is that it diffuses the light. The glass has varying degrees of translucency, allowing light to pass through while maintaining privacy. Rather than allowing harsh direct sunlight through, channel glass softens the light as it enters a space.
