Safety Glass Units
Safety glass units can be either toughened or laminated glass, delivering superior strength, security, and protection. Designed for both residential and commercial use, they enhance safety by reducing the risk of injury and helping the glass remain intact even if damaged, making them an ideal choice for high-performance glazing applications.
Common Applications
Safety glass is widely used in:
Windows and doors
Shower screens and bathroom enclosures
Glass balustrades and stair panels
Office partitions and internal glazing
Shopfronts and commercial installations
Customisation Options
Safety glass can be manufactured in a variety of:
Thicknesses and sizes
Clear, tinted, or obscure finishes
Double or triple-glazed units
Laminated combinations for added security
Why It’s a Popular Choice
Its combination of strength, safety, and versatility makes Safety glass a reliable solution for modern building projects. Whether used in residential or commercial settings, it provides peace of mind while maintaining a clean and stylish appearance.
Things to Consider
Cannot be cut after toughening: All sizing and shaping must be done beforehand
Edge quality matters: Proper finishing helps maximise strength and safety
Cost vs value: Slightly higher upfront cost, but longer lifespan and reduced risk
Toughened Laminated Glass Performance
When combined into a unit, toughened laminated glass delivers the high strength and impact resistance of toughened glass alongside the added security and structural integrity of laminated glass. This combination ensures that even if the outer pane is broken, the interlayer holds the glass together, helping to keep the panel in place and maintain a barrier. As a result, it provides enhanced safety, improved durability, and greater protection, making it an ideal choice for applications where both strength and security are essential.
