Amglass can supply Laminated, Toughened and Safety to suit a wide variety of applications.
Toughened Glass & Safety Glass
Achieved by heating annealed glass to approx 620°C within a furnace at which point it begins to soften, this is then cooled rapidly. When broken, Toughened Glass fractures into small pieces (called dice). As these particles do not have sharp edges and dagger points of normal broken glass it is generally regarded as Safety Glass.
Laminated Glass
Manufactured by assembling two panels of glass which are sandwiched together with PVB. This is, therefore, a composite high performance product which combines the material properties of the glass with the unique properties of PVB such as adhesion to glass, elasticity and impact resistance.
