PROTECT WS WINDSTORM GLASS

Protect WS

PYRAN ® PLATINUM is an award winning fire-rated glazing with market leading technology. It is made in Germany by SCHOTT using a next generation float process that produces a very high quality glass-ceramic with the largest sizes in the industry. It compares very favorably to traditional products like FireLite ® that may require corrective grinding and polishing. Where other glass-ceramics can be yellow-brown in color, Platinum has a hint of grey/green like regular glass. And Glassopolis has great pricing on PYRAN ® Platinum. In terms of optical quality, color and price, you can’t beat PYRAN ® Platinum from Glassopolis
