Borosilicate glass

First of all, what is borosilicate glass?

Borosilicate glass is a special type of glass that is characterized by its exceptional heat resistance, durability and chemical stability. It is made by combining silicon dioxide (SiO2) and boron trioxide (B2O3), making it one of the strongest and most durable glasses in the world. Thanks to its unique properties, borosilicate glass is used in various industries, from laboratory equipment to kitchen utensils and - most notably - in high-quality glass filter tips such as our PURESMOKE products.



Why do we use borosilicate glass for PURESMOKE filter tips?

The decision to use borosilicate glass for our PURESMOKE filter tips is no coincidence. It offers numerous advantages that make it the ideal material for high-quality glass filters:

  • Heat resistance: Borosilicate glass is extremely heat-resistant and can easily withstand temperatures of up to 500°C. This means that our glass filter tips will not be damaged even with intensive use.

  • Durability: Unlike regular glass, borosilicate glass is scratch-resistant and more shatter-proof, which means your PURESMOKE glass filter tips will last a long time and can be used over and over again.

  • Taste neutrality: One of the most important features for smokers is the taste neutrality of the filter. Borosilicate glass does not affect the taste of the herbs or tobacco, so you can experience pure enjoyment.

  • Hygiene: Borosilicate glass is easy to clean and resistant to chemical reactions. This means that PURESMOKE filter tips can be used multiple times without any loss of quality or purity.
