Safety glass should be specified in areas to protect against injury from impact or falling glass in high risk areas.
Laminated Glass- The bonding of two or more sheets of glass with interlayer of PVB
Toughened Glass - This Glass is processed by a controlled thermal treatment to increase the strength, this glass is 4-5 times stronger than non toughened glass. Due to the process the molecular structure is changed, in the event of breakage, the glass shatters into small non sharp pieces. The benefit of toughened glass is its strength upon impact as it has the highest classification available.
Wired Glass- This glass has a wire mesh embedded into it during the manufacturing process, it is designed to remain in one piece if cracked, minimising the chance of injury.
