When it comes to glass options for your shop front or home construction, the decision can be challenging. While Laminated Glass is common, it may not offer the desired security. Today, we explore the advantages of Toughened or Tempered Glass, a more secure alternative.

What is Toughened Glass?

Toughened Glass, also known as Tempered Glass, is notably stronger than regular glass, and up to 5 times more resilient. Its production involves subjecting regular glass to high temperatures (over 600ºC) and rapidly cooling it down. This process creates a significantly tougher glass surface, offering up to 500% more resistance to heat and shock.

The enhanced structural durability and strength make it an excellent choice. However, shaping and cutting must be done before the toughening process, as post-toughening cutting may cause the glass to shatter. Nonetheless, Toughened Glass can be fully customised to meet your specific requirements.

Benefits and Uses

Toughened Glass boasts various architectural applications due to its exceptional strength. It finds its place in home bathrooms, glass shop fronts, worktops, table tops, shower screens, kitchen splashbacks, shelves, windows, internal partition walls, and more.

Key Advantages for Your Shop Front:

Enhanced Strength and Resilience: 5 times stronger than regular glass, ensuring a safer shop front.

Safety: When broken, it shatters into smaller pieces, reducing the risk of hazards and injuries.

Thermal Efficiency: Offers thermal resistance, helping you save on energy costs. Choose Toughened Glass for Your Shop Front!
