Starphire Ultra-Clear Glass in the Steelers Trophy Room

Champions in Glass.
Champions on the Gridiron.

Vitro, the leading glass manufacturer in North America, is a proud partner of the Pittsburgh Steelers, one of the most iconic franchises in the NFL.

As the first Mexico-based partner of the Steelers through the NFL Global Markets Program, this collaboration, which began in 2024, also reflects a growing international fan base, particularly in Mexico, where the team boasts nearly eight million fans.

Before, the Steelers’ Lombardi Trophies were guarded by conventional clear glass.

Now, Starphire Ultra-Clear® glass offers true-to-life views of the Steelers’ Six Super Bowl Championships.

A Shared History, A Shared Vision

Both Vitro and the Steelers are defined by innovation, a relentless pursuit of improvement and a deep connection to the city.

Pittsburgh Roots: Vitro’s architectural glass business, Vitro Architectural Glass (formerly PPG Glass), was founded in Pittsburgh in 1883.
Innovation: From trusted and proven low-e coatings to world-leading transparent low-iron glass, Vitro pushes industry boundaries.
High-Performance Mindset: Just as the Steelers push themselves on the field to further their performance, Vitro’s research and development teams continue to reimagine architectural glass capabilities.

Protecting a Championship Legacy with Unmatched Clarity

The partnership reached a defining milestone in May 2026 with the unveiling of the newly redesigned Pittsburgh Steelers Trophy Room. At the heart of the renovation is Starphire Ultra-Clear^® glass by Vitro, which now protects and delivers true-to-life views of the Steelers’ six Lombardi Trophies.

Starphire Ultra-Clear^® glass by Vitro is the premier low-iron glass for interior, exterior and safety applications.

Exceptional Clarity: Up to 87% less green than conventional “clear” glass, redefining visual excellence.
Unmatched Transparency: Creates vibrant, bright and dynamic spaces.
Proven Protection: Trusted to safeguard some of the nation’s most important historical artifacts, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, and now, the Steelers’ championship legacy.

The result is a brighter, more immersive experience that elevates how visitors engage with the Steelers’ Super Bowl trophies.
