PARSOL® ULTRA GREY – Grey Tinted Float Glass
PARSOL® ULTRA GREY glass has a deep grey, nearly black gloss appearance. It is ideally suited to interiors such as kitchens and bathrooms, as well as furniture design and external facades.
It’s deep colour provides a very low light transmission of 10% which can help to create dark coloured facades and interior glazing.
PARSOL® ULTRA GREY is a highly body-tinted float glass, manufactured in the same way as standard float glass. This method ensures the PARSOL® ULTRA GREY glass has a high shine and intense grey colour. Its colour and opaqueness intensify with its thickness, so that its appearance changes from a dark grey in the 4mm thickness to a virtually opaque black in the 8mm thickness.

PARSOL® ULTRA GREY Advantages
COLOUR INTENSITY
The colour and opaqueness of PARSOL® ULTRA GREY tinted glass intensify with its thickness, providing different benefits across the range:
- 4 and 6mm: privacy or vision control glass. When used between rooms as partition glass, dependent on the lighting, the inside of a lighter room can be observed without the viewer being seen. From the lighter side, the glass looks like black lacquered glass providing a one-way function.
- 6mm and thicker: wall panelling or furniture glass. The glass is opaque enough to help hide imperfections on a wall or cover the front of a cupboard or cabinet.
- 8 and 10mm: appearance of virtually opaque black glass. The glass has a solid, stone-like appearance, reminiscent of onyx. These thicknesses expand the range of possible applications.
PROCESSING CAPABILITIES
- PARSOL® ULTRA GREY can be processed in the same way as conventional float glass.
- When toughened, the glass can be exposed to intense heat sources and high humidity areas, including at the back of cooker hoods and in bathrooms.
- It can be assembled in laminated glass for identical safety properties to the STADIP® range.
- Curved for a rounded shape.
- Acid-etched or screen-printed to customise for decoration.
