Safety & Security Glass: Stronger Than Ever

In an era where safety and security are top priorities for both residential and commercial spaces, glass is no longer just about aesthetics—it’s about protection. With increasing concerns around public safety, the demand for high-performance safety and security glass has surged. At Hartung Glass Industries, we are proud to offer a robust line of safety and security glass products that combine strength, durability, and style.

The Growing Need for Safety & Security Glass

From schools and office buildings to retail spaces and government facilities, the need for stronger, more resilient glass has never been greater. Security concerns, extreme weather events, and the desire for safer environments have fueled the rise in laminated, tempered, and bullet-resistant glass installations. Today’s architects and builders seek solutions that offer protection without compromising on design—and that’s where Hartung excels.

Types of Safety & Security Glass

1. Tempered Glass
   Tempered glass is heat-treated to increase its strength compared to standard annealed glass. It’s designed to break into small, blunt pieces rather than sharp shards, reducing the risk of injury. Ideal for doors, windows, and facades, tempered glass offers enhanced safety while maintaining clarity and aesthetics.

2. Laminated Glass
   Laminated glass consists of two or more layers of glass bonded with a durable interlayer, typically polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or SentryGlas®. When broken, the interlayer holds the glass together, preventing it from shattering into dangerous fragments. This makes laminated glass perfect for skylights, glass railings, and high-security areas.

3. Bullet-Resistant Glass
   Bullet-resistant glass combines multiple layers of laminated glass and polycarbonate to provide superior protection against ballistic threats. It’s commonly used in banks, government buildings, and other high-security locations. Hartung’s bullet-resistant glass is rigorously tested to meet industry standards, ensuring maximum safety without sacrificing visual appeal.
