We show that materials made of scatterers distributed on a stealth hyperuniform point pattern can be transparent at densities for which an uncorrelated disordered material would be opaque due to multiple scattering. The conditions for transparency are analyzed using numerical simulations, and an explicit criterion is found based on a perturbative theory. The broad applicability of the concept offers perspectives for various applications in photonics and more generally in wave physics.
