Specialist Glass

Tru Vue from the U.S. produce a variety of Specialist Glass products. Conservation Clear is the most popular UV glass that we sell, a 2.5mm float glass with a very high UV protection. Reflection Control is an acid etched, low reflection glass that comes both with and without a UV coating. Tru Vue's Water White AR (without UV protection) and Museum glass (with UV protection) are exceptionally clear types of glass that are almost invisible thanks to Tru Vue's proprietary manufacturing process. Tru Vue also do a 4.4mm and 6.4mm water white laminated glass which has the benefits of superb clarity, the highest UV protection and also the added benefit of protection from accidental damage or vandalism.

Artglass is the most recent addition to our glass range. It is made in a state of the art factory in Latvia. The Artglass range includes a low-iron (water-white) float glass with and without a UV coating and a 4.4 and 6.4mm laminated version. These products have superb clarity and the most neutral reflected colour in the industry.

For your workshop we stock a wide range of cleaning and cutting sundries. From glass cleaners and cloths to glass cutters and protective equipment. If it is related to glass you will find what you need in this section.
