| When it comes to safety glass, there are generally two options that architects and designers of today will tend specify: toughened glass and laminated glass.
| Glass canopies are a common design element added to homes and commercial buildings around the world, whether they’re new or old.
| Minor edge damage during glass handling, a scratch or nick during installation, a design flaw, or a natural imperfection in the glass could all result in spontaneous breakage.
| With a sophisticated, modern appeal and the long-lasting promise of this highly durable building material, adding a glass canopy over the front door can create just the right finish for your build.

| Cladding is more than just a protective skin on the exterior of a building.
| Laminated safety glass is an excellent choice for building construction—here’s why.
| Combining white colour effects with impressive strength-to-weight ratio and excellent postbreakage performance
| Digitalization is the essential next step in glass manufacturing. It’s founded on a high level of automation.
