Float glass is a type of flat glass manufactured using the float process. The production method involves pouring molten glass onto a bath of molten tin, where the glass spreads evenly on the surface of the tin and cools to form a uniform sheet. Float glass is characterized by its smooth surface, uniform thickness, and high transparency, making it widely used in construction, automotive, furniture, and home appliance industries.
