Tempered Glass

Tempered Glass is a specialized heat treatment process that transforms ordinary glass into a significantly stronger and safer material. At AllGlass, we utilize state-of-the-art tempering technology to enhance the structural integrity of glass, making it up to five times stronger than standard glass while maintaining perfect clarity and visual appeal.

Our tempered glass undergoes a carefully controlled heating and rapid cooling process that creates a compressed surface layer, resulting in exceptional durability and resistance to thermal stress. When broken, tempered glass shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces rather than sharp, dangerous shards, providing essential safety features for applications in residential buildings, commercial spaces, and automotive industries. With our precision equipment and expert technicians, we deliver tempered glass solutions that meet the highest international safety standards while fulfilling your specific design requirements.

Benefits of Our Tempered Glass

Choosing AllGlass tempered glass solutions provides numerous advantages for your projects. Our tempered glass offers enhanced safety and security while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The increased strength allows for larger glass spans with reduced thickness, creating more open, light-filled spaces. The thermal resistance properties contribute to energy efficiency in buildings, while the durability ensures long-term performance with minimal maintenance. Additionally, our tempered glass complies with international building codes and safety standards, simplifying approval processes for your construction projects.

Frequently asked questions

Get answers to the most common questions about our Tempered Glass services. Our comprehensive FAQ section addresses technical specifications, applications, and practical considerations to help you make informed decisions about your glass requirements.

How does the tempering process affect glass appearance?

The tempering process enhances the strength of glass without altering its transparency or color. However, very slight optical distortions might occasionally be visible under specific lighting conditions due to the heating and cooling process. Our advanced technology minimizes these effects to ensure the highest optical quality.

What glass thicknesses can be tempered?

At AllGlass, we can temper glass ranging from 4mm to 19mm in thickness. Each thickness has specific applications where it performs optimally, and our experts can guide you in selecting the appropriate thickness for your project based on safety requirements, structural needs, and design considerations.

Can tempered glass be cut or drilled after the tempering process?

No, tempered glass cannot be cut, drilled, or otherwise modified after the tempering process without causing it to shatter. All cutting, drilling, edgework, and other fabrication must be completed before tempering. This is why we work closely with clients to ensure all specifications are precisely determined before beginning the tempering process.
