Toughened Laminated Glass
Increasingly growing in popularity is Toughened Laminated Glass, the secret of which lies in the laminating process, the glass undergoes during the manufacture. In simple terms an interlayer is “sandwiched” between two pieces of toughened glass should the glass suffer a breakage, the interlayer ensures that the piece of glass remains in place eliminating the risk of harm from shards or large pieces becoming displaced.
Architects and builders are constantly specifying laminated glass as it provides the strength & stability of toughened safety glass whilst improving safety by retaining all broken shards when a breakage occurs.
Toughened laminated glass is often used for balustrades, balconies, and flooring due to its exceptional strength and safety features. This is popular for both homes and public spaces, as it reduces the risk of injury to pedestrians and provides a clean, sleek appearance.
Unlike traditional glass, toughened laminated glass is highly resistant to heat and can withstand heavy impacts. In the case of a fire, this adds an extra layer of safety, slightly slowing fire from spreading so residents have more time to exit the building.
The laminated interlayer also provides excellent soundproofing, reducing noise transmission, making it ideal for both residential and commercial spaces. This interlayer is also UV-resistant, protecting the interior of your property from sun damage.
Available in a range of thicknesses and styles, toughened laminated glass is the perfect choice for any project. Once installed, this will elevate the look and feel of your home or office, adding a modern and contemporary touch.
