Tempered glass, also named toughened glass, is manufactured by heating and then rapidly cooling float glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the inner surfaces into tension, which gives tempered glass five times more strength than ordinary glass of same thickness, combined with better resistance to impact. 

Features:
1) Five times more strength than ordinary glass.
2) Tempered glass is a safety glass, so in the unlikely event of breakage the glass will fragment into small blunt-edged pieces reducing the risk of injury.

Applications:
1) Windows
2) Doors
3) Shower screens
4) Partitions
5) Facades
6) Furniture
7) Balustrades
8) Greenhouse
9) Patio sliding door 

Standards and Installation:
1) Heat soak testing on tempered glass is avaliable.
2) The heating and cooling process of tempering glass creates levels of distortion over the finished glass surface.  Tempered glass is less flat than standard annealed float glass.
3) Heat strengthened glass is not safety glass but has double the strength of ordinary glass. If broken, it breaks into larger pieces and may have less distortion than fully tempered glass.

Processing Capabilities:
Thickness range: 3mm-19mm
