AG coating for cover glass

AG Coated Glass

We manufacture custom AG Coated Glass for electronic displays, touchscreens, industrial HMIs, automotive interfaces, outdoor equipment and other applications where glare control and screen readability are important.

AG, or Anti-Glare, treatment modifies the glass surface to diffuse reflected light and reduce distracting glare. The AG surface can be customized according to the required haze, gloss, surface texture and optical performance of the application.

Customers can specify the glass material, thickness, dimensions, AG requirements, CNC features, printing and strengthening requirements. Our engineering team can review drawings and technical specifications before sample production and mass production.

What Is AG Coated Glass?

AG Coated Glass is glass with an anti-glare surface treatment designed to reduce distracting reflections and improve viewing conditions under bright or variable lighting.

Unlike a standard smooth glass surface, an AG-treated surface can diffuse reflected light. The final appearance and optical performance depend on factors such as surface texture, haze, gloss, glass substrate and application requirements.

AG Coated Glass can therefore be customized for different display structures and viewing environments rather than using one fixed AG specification for every application.

AG Coated Glass Surface Specifications

What It Describes

Haze

Degree of light diffusion through the glass

Gloss

Quality Inspection for AG Coated Glass

AG coated glass can be inspected according to agreed glass and surface-treatment specifications. Inspection may include dimensions, thickness, surface appearance, haze, gloss, optical characteristics, printed areas and other project-specific requirements.Inspection criteria can be established from customer drawings and technical specifications before production to help maintain consistent AG surface quality throughout the order.

FAQ

What is AG Coated Glass?

AG Coated Glass is glass with an anti-glare surface treatment designed to diffuse reflected light and reduce distracting glare.

What is the difference between AG glass and regular cover glass?

AG glass has a treated surface designed to control glare and reflected light, while regular cover glass normally has a smoother surface with different reflection characteristics.

Can AG Coated Glass be customized according to drawings?

Yes. Glass size, thickness, shape, CNC features, edge processing, printing and surface-treatment requirements can be customized according to customer drawings.

Can I specify the haze and gloss of AG glass?

Yes. Haze, gloss, VLT and other optical requirements can be evaluated according to the application and required surface appearance.

Can AG Coated Glass be chemically strengthened?

Yes. Chemical strengthening can be evaluated together with the glass material, thickness and AG processing requirements.

Can AG glass be combined with AR and AF coatings?

Depending on the selected coating system and glass structure, AG can be combined with AR or AF treatments. Compatibility should be confirmed for each project.

Can AG Coated Glass have silk screen printing?

Yes. Silk screen printing can be incorporated for borders, logos, icons and other functional graphics according to the product design.
