Satin-finished

Ecosat Velo is an exclusive new satin-finish glass from Vitrealspecchi. Compared to ordinary acid-etched glass, it offers higher luminous transmission (8 mm thick, extra-clear: 87.4%), easier cleaning, also in the transformation phase, and a very competitive price-quality ratio. These characteristics make it ideal above all for all-glass doors and partition walls which have to provide effective screening but which are less opaque close up and therefore look lighter. And that’s not all: the extreme silkiness of the surface is pleasing to touch and also more resistant to fingerprints, properties highly appreciated in buildings exposed to frequent contact with the public.


Ecosat Velo is made in plates measuring 2250/2400/2550 x 3210 mm, up to 12 mm in thickness, clear and extra-clear.
