GLASS INDUSTRY

Glass production is one of the largest industrial applications for silica sand with over 99% purity. Silica sand is the main carrier of the glass formulation, and keeping iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) below 0.01% is critical for light transmittance.

Aktif Çelik supplies specially washed and screened high-purity silica sand for flat glass, container glass, fiberglass, automotive glass and solar panel glass production. The photovoltaic industry has increased demand for ultra-pure silica sand by 35% in recent years.
