How to choose anti-reflective glass and ordinary glass for glass greenhouse

Many glass greenhouse owners face the same problem when choosing top glass, how to choose anti-reflective glass and ordinary glass, what are the benefits of anti-reflective glass, and what are the differences between the two.

The industry mainly chooses products that are suitable for itself according to actual needs. Firstly, it chooses products with high cost performance in consideration of many factors such as climatic conditions, crops and investment capabilities. The advantages of anti-reflection and high-transmittance glass over other ordinary glass are mainly as follows:

Light transmittance effect

The light transmittance of anti-reflective glass can reach 97%, and it is mainly used as roof material for agricultural greenhouses. It has the effect of increasing the light transmission rate and enhancing the light intensity, while the ordinary glass (ultra-white glass) is only 91%, not to mention the float blue glass, and the light transmittance is even lower. The difference of 6% light intensity brings a 20% benefit effect.


Technology cost

Anti-reflective glass, like its name, uses anti-reflective technology. The anti-reflective layer is etched on the surface of the glass with chemicals. Increase the transmission of light effects, while ordinary glass is not treated. The technical cost is convenient, and the investment in anti-reflective glass is greater.


Raw materials

The anti-reflective glass uses high-quality low-iron quartz sand with iron content less than 120ppmFe2O3. The whiter the anti-reflective glass is made at the end of the month, the better the effect. Float glass looks blue because of its high iron content.
