Guardian provides Clarity™ glass for Egyptian museum exhibit in Paris

Guardian Industries’ Glass Group Europe provided Guardian Clarity™ anti-reflective glass for use in the display cases for Osiris, a traveling exhibition of rare Egyptian artifacts. Such valuable artifacts deserve to be displayed in the best possible manner, to ensure the viewing public can see every detail in these centuries-old treasures from beneath the sea. The objects also need to be safeguarded against possible damage. The residual reflection colour of Guardian Clarity is a soft neutral blue, which, in combination with Guardian UltraClear™ substrate, allows it to provide maximum transparency while eliminating unwanted reflection and glare.
