VGC’s 12.76mm and 13.52mm Museum Laminated AR Glass are specifically engineered for high-end cultural relic display scenarios, integrating low-iron glass substrate, double-sided anti-reflective (AR) coating, and high-performance PVB interlayer. These two optimized structures balance exceptional optical clarity, reliable safety protection, and artifact preservation, making them ideal choices for museums, art galleries, luxury showcases, and private collection enclosures worldwide.
CLEAR GLASS v.s LOW IRON GLASS
Low reflection Museum Display glass
Museum Laminated AR Glass
Product Structures (Low-Iron Anti-Reflective Glass)
Both structures adopt high-purity low-iron glass to minimize color distortion, paired with professional AR coatings for glare elimination:
-
12.76mm Structure: 6mm AR Low-Iron Glass + 0.76mm PVB + 6mm Low-Iron Glass (economical and efficient solution)
-
13.52mm Structure: 6mm AR Low-Iron Glass + 1.52mm PVB + 6mm Low-Iron Glass (enhanced security and UV protection)
