What is Laminated Glass and Why does your Project need it?

Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that is made by sandwiching one or more layers of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or other interlayer material between two or more sheets of glass. The interlayer holds the glass together if it is shattered, preventing it from breaking into sharp, dangerous pieces. This feature makes laminated glass an ideal choice for applications where safety and security are a concern, such as in automotive windshields, building facades, and skylights.

The use of laminated glass in a project can provide several benefits, including enhanced safety, sound reduction, and energy efficiency. For example, in a building, laminated glass can help reduce the risk of injury from falling glass or break-ins, while also reducing noise levels and improving thermal insulation. In a car, laminated glass can help keep occupants safe during an accident and can also help reduce road noise.

In general, any project that requires glass in a high-risk area, or where safety and security are a concern, can benefit from the use of laminated glass. It is a versatile material that can be customized to meet specific performance requirements and can provide peace of mind knowing that the glass is less likely to shatter and cause harm in the event of an accident or break-in.
