7 Uses for Laminated Glass

Written by Hartung Glass Industries | Mar 23, 2022 4:30:56 PM

Laminated glass is constructed by permanently bonding two or more lites of glass together with a polymeric interlayer sheet using a process that involves exposure to cycles of heat and pressure within a specialized autoclave chamber. The interlayers secure the glass to create a strong, uniformed layer even when broken. Laminated glass comes in a variety of thicknesses and different glass combinations, interlayer components or coatings.

Here are 7 uses for laminated glass:

  1. Safety Glass - For use in buildings where hurricanes or other natural disasters are a high risk
  2. Security Glass – Blast and bullet resistant for use in detention facilities, schools, hospitals and other homes or institutions that may be higher break-in risk
  3. Retail Displays - As display cabinets for valuables, windscreens and sneeze guards
  4. Glass floors
  5. Glass railings and stairs
  6. Skylights
  7. Glass roofs
