Airports demand reliable airfield lighting products to ensure safety throughout varying operations and visibility conditions. Kopp Glass is recognized as the trusted advisor for providing engineering, manufacturing, and application support through state-of-the-art testing equipment and engineering staff who are active in key industry organizations and committees. Innovative airfield lighting manufactures work with us because of this expertise in technical glass which enables them to develop differentiated products that can command better margins. It is an exciting time in airfield and obstruction lighting as the industry looks to accelerate the replacement of traditional incandescent technology with more efficient light emitting diode (LED) systems. Leverage our industry and application expertise to expand your product line to include new energy efficient LED lighting products faster.

Kopp Glass has a wide range of industrial sight and meter glass. Borosilicate glass is perfectly suited for these applications because of its durability and strength, thermal and physical shock resistance, and chemical resistance. It can be shaped to close tolerances with uniform dimensions and color permanently retained. Examples where borosilicate glass is used in these applications is as follows:BushingsSight GlassHeavy Equipment and MachineryIndicator Light CoversMeter CoversMetal Bonded to GlassOther - Including process control and process observation applications

The emergence of LEDs and other lighting technologies has introduced complex challenges into the aerospace industry. Our extensive glass portfolio includes clear and colored filter glass formulations designed to meet FAA, MIL, and ICAO regulatory standards for both incandescent and LED light sources.From the wing panel to the position lights - every component of an aircraft must be fine-tuned and engineered to ensure maximum performance and efficiency. Our specialized manufacturing process enables us to mold glass into complex contoured shapes while meeting rigorous dimensional tolerances. You dont have to rely on expensive fabrication and machining costs to achieve optimal aerodynamic forms.

We have a large portfolio of colored filter glass compositions that are engineered to transmit or absorb light in the ultraviolet (UV), visible, and infrared (IR) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. New technologies and applications are constantly evolving and frequently require custom filter glass compositions. We operate in a single, integrated manufacturing facility with in-house research and engineering capabilities. This enables us to quickly develop custom glass compositions and to manufacture filter glass that meets the demands of emerging technologies.

Wherever light is used, Kopp lenses give it meaning and direction. Whether you are looking for Stock Fresnel lenses or a custom design - Kopp has a solution. Kopp borosilicate glass offers superior performance and durability in lighting applications.Robust material that offers excellent thermal shock resistanceHighly abrasion and scratch resistant ensuring optimum light transmission over the lifetime of the fixtureLenses are Ultraviolet (UV) Stable and will not degrade or 'yellow' overtime due to UV exposureWe offer a variety of glass compositions engineered for targeted performance requirements, including a special low thermal expansion clear borosilicate glass for high intensity lighting applications. Kopp can also heat strengthen or temper glass lenses for added durability. We have solutions for every stage of your development process:

Roundels and cover glass are available in clear and colored glass, flat and convex shapes in a wide range of sizes. Kopp can produce custom dimensions or add special features to our stock product line such as custom molded logos or other brand design elements. These lenses are typically made from durable borosilicate glass and heat strengthening is available for added durability. Glass roundels and cover lenses can be manufactured in a wide range of specialty glass compositions, including:

The chances are very good that you see Kopp Glass transportation and signal products every day during your regular commute. We supply a broad range of products and glass colors to the traffic, railroad and marine industries meeting all regulatory specifications. These products require strict control for: Traffic Signal LensesKopp glass is the largest supplier of clear and colored glass lenses and pedestrian panels to the traffic signal market. All products are produced to meet the Institute for Traffic Engineering (ITE) Standards. Products include 8" and 12" ball traffic lenses as well as arrows and pedestrian panels. Stenciling for arrows and pedestrian panels is done through our enameling process in our finishing department. Railroad LensesKopp Glass has been producing lenses and lantern globes for the railroad market since 1926. The demanding colors, tolerances, and durability of the original lenses still apply today. All of our products meet American Association of Railroads (AAR) standards. Marine LensesMoisture and chemical resistant glass is perfectly suited for marine lighting fixture applications. Unlike plastic lenses which can degrade with sun and salt exposure, clear and colored borosilicate glass can withstand the elements and maintain their original color and tolerances. Kopp marine lighting fixture glass is available in a wide range of colors and shapes and can be seen on bridges, ships, docks, and buoys, which are produced to military and international

The industrial curing market is rapidly evolving with the introduction of UV LEDs. They offer many benefits compared to mercury vapor sources, but there are still many challenges that need to be addressed before widespread adoption is realized, including high costs, availability of commercially viable UV-C LEDS, formulation compatibility, and working distance limitations. To help you harness their benefits and create fully optimized UV LED lights, we offer custom molded UV optics that increase UV LED irradiance and improve light distribution uniformity. Our molded UV optics enable the creation of high-performance UV curing lights that enable flexible working distances and the ability to cure both flat and complex 3D surfaces. Achieve greater design freedom while also improving energy efficiency, using fewer UV LEDs, and improving overall thermal management.
