Interior ArchitectureTough, yet elegant.
Product InformationCorning® Gorilla® Glass offers a unique combination of toughness, elegance and design freedom for interior architecture.
Benefits• The optical clarity of the glass enables customers to realize
their vision through true color match - whether pristine whites
or vibrant colors
• Tough and durable, thin Corning Gorilla Glass preserves
and helps protect the material beneath it with excellent
durability and scratch resistance
• Thin, lightweight Corning Gorilla Glass allows
refurbishment and new design within tight elevator
weight budgets
• Corning Gorilla Glass provides endless possibilities
for custom decoration
Corning Gorilla Glass exhibits higher transmission performance and superior optical clarity in the visible range.
Superior optical clarity
Properties

Superior bending strength
In accordance with the ASTM E-1300 protocol (calculated 0.8% probability of failure), Corning Gorilla Glass demonstrated superior bending strength, enabling the use of thinner glass to support the same load when compared to soda-lime glass.
When subjected to a scratch resistance test involving loads of 50g of force (Knoop indenter), Corning Gorilla Glass showed greater scratch resistance compared to air tempered soda-lime glass. All results shown at same magnification.
