TOUGHENED GLASS

We can toughen glass from 4mm – 15mm, 250cm across diagonal. The maximum size is 1800mm x 3000mm although larger sizes can be supplied to order.

We toughen glass in our own furnace in our County Toughening plant to BS EN 12150 standard. The glass toughens when it is heated so that it begins to soften and is then cooled rapidly. If the glass does break it shatters into small pieces without sharp edges.

This glass will generally be up to five times stronger than ordinary annealed glass depending on the glass type and thickness.

LAMINATED GLASS

Laminated glass is produced by bonding two or more layers of glass together using a special plastic interlayer. If the glass does break the interlayer holds the fragments of glass together preventing further damage. It can be manufactured in varying degrees of thickness for domestic and commercial use and is perfectly clear.

We hold a wide range of annealed of laminated glass in stock and can supply any make up of toughened laminate to special order.
