THE WORLD OF GLASS
QUALITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE

We work only with the best quality raw materials and reliable partners. Only borosilicate 3.3 heat-resistant glass from Germany and the EU guarantees that all products comply with EU regulations and standards.

Our glass does not contain heavy metals or other toxic substances, its smooth, non-porous surface is ideal for allergy sufferers.

Trendglas Jena GmbH was the first company to be awarded the European Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF) certificate, a quality seal for our glass jars, based on scientifically tested criteria.

Our company was the first to introduce the ISO 9001 quality assurance system and still uses it as the only manufacturer of laboratory glassware in Hungary.

 

 

Our products are made from Duran® and AR-Glas® glass tubes and glass rods manufactured by Schott-Rohrglas, as well as by further processing Duran® and Simax products.

Our products are made of borosilicate 3.3 glass and have excellent physical and chemical features. Only borosilicate 3.3 heat-resistant glass from Germany and the EU is used.

Our glass is highly resistant to water, neutral and acid solutions, concentrated acids and acid mixtures, and chlorine, bromine, iodine, and organic substances. Its chemical resistance is superior to that of most metals and other materials, even during prolonged periods of exposure and at temperatures above 100 °C.
Only hydrofluoric acid, concentrated phosphoric acid, and strong alkali cause appreciable surface removal of the glass (glass corrosion) at elevated temperatures (>100 °C).

Physical properties:

The maximum temperature for short-term use for our glass is 500 °C.
Our glass can be cooled down to the maximum possible negative temperature (approx. -196 °C). In general, our glass products are recommended for use down to -70 °C. In practice, therefore, stepwise cooling and heating are recommended.
