Information

Tempered glass (ESG): This is a thermally strengthened glass that, when broken, breaks into small, round fragments with dull edges, thus minimising the risk of injury. It is often used in areas where the risk of damage is high, such as canopies, door elements or furniture.

Laminated Glass (VSG): It consists of at least two panes of glass joined by a layer of one or more special films. Laminated glass maintains its structure even when broken; a broken glass pane does not become fragmented, which is crucial for safety. Laminated glass has a wide range of applications in the construction industry and architecture, for example as balustrades, partitions, or staircases.

Safety: The main advantage of safety glass is its increased resistance to mechanical damage. This is particularly important for use in public areas and houses where safety is a priority.

Resistance to Weather Conditions: Safety glass has increased resistance to thermal stresses and is resistant to weather conditions, such as strong winds and precipitation.

Sound insulation: Some types of safety glass combine compliance with high safety requirements and sound insulation performance. They reduce external noise, which significantly increases the comfort of the rooms. They can be used, for example, next to a busy street or near an airport.

Protection against burglary: Due to its increased strength, safety glass can effectively deter burglars and provide an additional layer of protection.

Aesthetic qualities: In addition to other characteristics of safety glass, the decorative function is an important distinctive feature. We can incorporate graphics, patterns and even interactive or LED film in laminated glass. It is also possible to combine different types of glass.

Needs Analysis: It is important to determine exactly what type of safety glass will be best for your design project. To do this, it is useful to take into account factors such as the location, the building purpose, and the budget, as well as to look for the help of a specialist to assist you in the selection of the right set of glass.

Comparing Costs and Benefits: Choosing the right glass is also about looking at the costs and potential benefits, including the long-term savings from improved insulation.

Compliance with Building Regulations: It is important that the selected glass meets certain quality requirements. These requirements, as well as the manner of testing are described in the standard EN 12150-1: Glass in construction industry. Thermally tempered soda lime silica safety glass

Smart Glass: New smart glass types can change their properties in response to external conditions, such as becoming less transparent in response to strong sunlight.

Anti-burglary technologies: The protective function is provided by laminated glass composed of an appropriately selected combination of glass and film. Thanks to this solution, we can resign from bars or roller blinds in the windows.

Innovations in Strength and Resistance: Technological advances have made it possible to create glass that is even more robust and resistant to damage, even to bomb blasts and ballistics.

Safety Glass in Residential Buildings: In houses, safety glass is used as decorative elements for doors and furniture, partitions and panels, stairs, balustrades, canopies, and shower enclosures.

Safety glass in Commercial Buildings: In offices and shops, safety glass is used not only for aesthetic reasons, but also to ensure the protection and safety of employees and customers.

Safety Glass in Public Facilities: In schools, hospitals and other public buildings, safety glass is crucial to ensure a protected environment.

Safety glass in construction is a key element of protection and functionality. The choice of the right safety glass is important for both safety and compliance with building regulations. State-of-the-art technologies and innovations in safety glass continue to evolve, offering increasingly better solutions for contemporary construction industry.
