What is borosilicate glass and why is it used in lighting?

Borosilicate glass is a high-performance glass formulated with boron trioxide, which gives it exceptional clarity, low thermal expansion, and strong resistance to heat. In pendant lighting, these properties allow the material to perform reliably over time while maintaining optical purity that diffuses or transmits light with minimal distortion.

Can the Spyder X be customized in size or finish?
