Low-Emissivity Glass

The Low-Emissivity glass consists of a float-based glass on which metal coatings that have the property of reflecting the infrared are applied to one or both faces.

Thanks to this specific process, the glass takes on properties that make it usable effectively in domestic and professional ovens, as real barriers to the heat generated during cooking or during special cleaning cycles (pyrolytic)

The heat barrier level is measured with the Resistivity parameter (ohm/sqm).

ILVA Glass, in its product range, has resistivity glass from 30 ohm/sqm, up to 9 ohm/sqm and different degrees of emissivity.

This range allows you to design particular configurations of the oven door and oven ventilation, to lower the temperatures on the external glass of the door up to 25/30 ° during the pyrolysis process (when the temperature of the cooking cavity reaches 500 ° C, even for 2.5 hours of process), with the typical structural thicknesses of oven doors (from 3 to 5 cm).
