Linit Low Iron

New Swiss Embassy, Washington,
Steven Holl Architects, New York,


Lamberts Linit low iron is almost certainly the premier glass type in the whole U-channel glass field. The low iron composition of Linit low iron has the advantage of a high light transmission factor of approximately 90% as well as a radiation transmission of approximately 88% (usual tolerances for rolled glass are to be observed).

The glass melt of Linit low iron is usually significantly paler (whiter) than a standard production run of Lamberts Linit. Linit low iron is often preferred by architects on buildings where a strikingly bright glass facade is required. The addition of sandblasted Linit Matt and backlighting add to the spectacle.









"Rather than the specular reflection characteristic of flat glass, the satin lustre of the LINIT U-profile glasses pull the colour of the surrounding sky or landscape across its surface."
