ReViSalt is reshaping the mass markets applications for chemial strenghtening, by enabling a speed process for thin, super lightweigth glass. This patented process allows glass to be up to 65% thinner, while enhancing scratch resistance and strength in only 10 to 30 min. In addition to allowing higher production at a fraction oft current costs this new development also significantly reduces energy as well as raw material consumption for more sustainable manufacturing. Our unique production method will further accelerate industrial-scale adoption, lowering costs even more so and expanding glass applications across diverse markets — from solarglass to architecture glass — driving a global shift towards greener, more efficient and sustainable glass solutions.
