Facts
One common method of mirrored or silvered glass manufacture is the ‘dual coat’ method. This involves coating clear or tinted glass with silver and then layering protective coats of copper and coats of paint which help protect the mirror from attack by corrosive substances and physical abrasion. The most recent technology in mirror manufacturing developed by Glaverbel is Miralux New Generation, which is copper and lead free and offers longer resistance to corrosion and aggressive chemical agents than conventional mirrors.
