glass ceramic - decoran® or structuran®
Glass ceramic has a unique, translucent optical quality that shows its crystal-like brilliance when lit up. When polished, glass ceramic emits a radiant shimmer, and when left naturally patinated, it has a unique appearance, half-reflectance and texture. Particularly striking, is the magnificence resulting from when a glass ceramic sheet is back-lit.
Ecologically, the glass ceramic material is absolutely in trend. Glass ceramic is produced to nearly 100% out of waste materials from industrial float glass production plants, as well as bottle glass production plants. This environmentally-friendly circle is completed when glass ceramic itself is discarded, as it can be broken down completely by glass processors and used to create new products. Hereby, glass ceramics participates in protecting our natural resources, as well as upholding the balance of sustainability in construction and design projects.
