Borosil is one of the renowned glass and glassware manufacturing company in India producing high quality lowexpansion borosilicate glass for specialized applications for over52 years since 1962. In the year 2010, Gujarat Borosil Limited (GBL ) of the renowned Borosilgroup has diversified into the manufacturing ofstate-of-the-art low iron, high transmission solar glass. The endto end manufacturing facility is set up in the state of Gujarat inthe Western state of India with technology imported from WestEurope from world leaders of glass equipment. GBL’s per dayproduction capacity is 180 MT . This is the FIRST and the ONLYplant in India producing ANTIMONY FREE, low iron, high transmissionsolar textured glass with 91.5% light transmission performance. GBLalso manufactures Extra clear patterned glass .GBL’s Anti-Reflective Coated textured solar glass is available in 3.2 mm to 6mm thickness for Solar PV, Solar Thermal and Greenhouseapplications with the coating liquid sourced from one of theworld’s renowned supplier. The coating on the top surface of theglass improves light transmission by 2 to 2.5%. GBL’s Extra clearpatterned glass Is available in 2 mm to 10 mm thickness forArchitectural applications.Glass panes are routed through a high quality automatic line forpencil edging and washing before tempering to a very high degree offlatness, designed to keep within tolerances of flatness requiredby the International solar PV Panel, Solar Thermal and Greenhousesegments in a high speed automatic glass tempering line. The manufacturing facility is ISO 9001:2008 accredited from TUVRheinland and the product conforms and adheres to variousInternational standards viz.- EN 12150-1- Hail stone impact resistance as per IEC 61215- P1 class certificate from SPF-Switzerland for Matt/matt andPrismatic /matt textured glass for 3.2mm and 4 mm textured solar glass- EN 410 (Luminous & Solar Characteristics Conformity) from TUVRheinland- EN 572-9 (Product aspects Conformity) from TUVRheinland- EN 12600 ( Drop pendulum test) from TUVRheinland- Performance durability of AR coated glass fromTUV- Light transmission and Haze factor of uncoated and AR coatedtextured solar glass from WUR, NetherlandsGBL’s in-house laboratory is fully equipped with the latest andmost advanced testing equipment to ensure top quality end productto the customer.
