Architectural Glass

Advanced Sputtering Targets for the Glass Coating Industry

Testbourne is a global leader in the supply of high-purity sputtering targets tailored for the glass coating industry. We partner with manufacturers and R&D teams to develop custom material solutions for architectural, automotive, photovoltaic and mirror coating applications.

Coating Applications

Our sputtering targets are used in a variety of high-performance coatings, including:

• Architectural Glass: Low-emissivity (Low-E) and solar control coatings
• Automotive Glass: Safety, defrosting, and UV protection layers
• Anti-Reflective and Antistatic Coatings (ARAS): For display panels, solar glass, and specialty optics
• Mirrors and Decorative Glass: Enhanced reflectivity and visual appeal

High-Purity Target Materials

We offer a wide range of metals, oxides, and alloys engineered for high-efficiency sputtering in planar and rotatable formats, up to 4 meters (13.2 ft) in length.

Plus, we offer oxides, alloys and ceramics.

• Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)
• Nickel-Chromium (NiCr)
• Niobium Oxide (Nb₂O₅)
• Niobium-Zirconium (NbZr)
• Silicon-Aluminium (SiAl)
• Titanium Oxide (TiO₂)
• Zinc-Aluminium (ZnAl)
• Zinc Oxide-Aluminium Oxide (ZnO:Al₂O₃)
• Zinc-Tin Oxide (ZTO)

Frequently Asked Questions 

What is a rotatable sputtering target?

Rotatable targets are cylindrical targets that rotate during deposition, offering greater material utilisation and longer target life, ideal for large-area coatings like architectural glass.

Can Testbourne provide custom compositions?

Yes. We specialise in custom alloy development and target design tailored to your performance, conductivity and optical property requirements.

What industries do you serve with glass coating targets?

We serve building and construction, automotive, solar energy and display technology industries worldwide.
