Why Choose Laminated Safety Glass?

Laminated glass is a top choice for safety and security. It’s a specially engineered type of safety glass designed to stay intact even when shattered. Unlike traditional toughened glass, laminated safety glass includes an interlayer, typically made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), sandwiched between two or more layers of glass.

Here’s how it works:

  • Impact Resistance: When struck, the glass holds together, thanks to the interlayer.
  • No Large Shards: The interlayer prevents the glass from breaking into sharp, dangerous pieces.
  • Spider-Web Cracks: Instead of falling apart, it forms a distinctive "spider-web" pattern, enhancing safety.

Applications of Laminated Safety Glass

Laminated safety glass is essential in areas where safety is a priority, such as:

  • Retail Stores & Businesses: Protect against break-ins or accidents.
  • Schools & Public Buildings: Minimize injury risks in high-traffic areas.
  • Hotels & Bars: Enhance guest safety while maintaining an elegant aesthetic.
  • Automotive Use: Widely used in car windshields for its strength and shatterproof properties.

Key Benefits of Laminated Glass

  • Enhanced Security: Deters intruders and protects against vandalism.
  • UV Protection: Blocks harmful UV rays, protecting interiors from fading.
  • Noise Reduction: Reduces outside noise, creating a more peaceful environment.
  • Durability: Stands up to extreme weather and daily wear and tear.

Frequently asked questions

This type of glass adds additional strength to your windows. To gain entry, a burglar would have to strike the glass repeatedly in the same spot in order to make a small opening. Most burglars are reluctant to create this type of noise for fear of being detected.

Annealed Glass      Less expensive, Good visibility
Laminated Glass    Strong material, shatter-resistant glass
Low-E Glass          Energy-efficient, thermal coating that lasts 10 to 15 years
Tinted Glass          Promotes greater privacy, heat transfer resistant

Laminated glass products make float glass suitable for today's demanding architectural applications such as: noise reduction, hurricane impact-resistance, blast mitigation, forced entry, protection from broken glass – or a combination of these.

Float glass: This is the most budget-friendly and has no natural tint. It is a single piece of glass that breaks into sharp shards when hit with force. Float glass can, however, undergo a lot of chemical processes to be strengthened. It can be used in single-pane and even double-pane windows once it's been enhanced.

The cost factor is a significant consideration, as it tends to be more expensive than standard glass options.

As the most common type of affordable glass, float glass will often be used for low-cost windows and smaller display cabinet-style doors, as well as being the base material for almost every other application.
