LINIT®EcoGlass: A special form of cast glass made from sand, lime, soda, and dolomite, used in various architectural projects for its light-diffusing properties and sustainability.
Introduction: LAMBERTS LINIT®EcoGlass is an alkali-lime glass primarily composed of sand, lime, soda, and dolomite. It is produced in an environmentally friendly, oxygen-fueled furnace, the first of its kind globally.
Manufacturing Process: Raw materials are melted in the furnace, and the glass strip is shaped into a U-form using steel rollers, then cooled and hardened. The cooling process is closely monitored to ensure quality.
Product Features: Glass lengths are cut to desired measurements, quality-checked, and packaged. Each glass strip has a unique optical character, contributing to a lively, light-refracting glass facade.
Environmental Impact: The manufacturing process combines efficient melting technology with reduced fuel consumption, helping to lower CO2 emissions.
