Does FireLite Fire-Rated Glass Have A Tint?
Due to the fact that ceramic is comprised of different basic ingredients than those used in the fabrication of ordinary window glass, FireLite appears to have a slight auburn tint, versus the blue or green hue commonly associated with window glass. In the case of window glass, the blue or green color tends to disappear once the glass is installed in a frame and light no longer refracts directly through the edge of the glass lite. This phenomenon is also true of FireLite, which tends to possess a neutral color once installed in a door or window frame.
