Insulating glass
is a multi-glass combination consisting of two or more panes enclosing a hermetically-sealed air space. The most important function of insulation glass is to reduce thermal losses, which offers many advantages: lower energy consumption, perfect transparency by reducing the incidence of condensation on the warm air side and the possibility of using larger glazed areas without increasing energy consumption.
ProductionInsulating glass is a glazed unit composed of two or more glass panes separated by spacers filled with dehydrated air or gas. The sheets are connected by a spacer, using sealants to reduce water vapor penetration. The whole unit is hermetically assembled by a secondary edge seal which gives structural robustness to the insulating glass. The spacer contains a desiccant which absorbs humidity from within the air space. The insulating glass unit (IGU) is made manually or with an automatic plant.
Detailed introduction to tempered glass:
Our tempered glass offers customers the following safety characteristics:
-4-5 times stronger than annealed glass of the same thickness
-stronger resistance to thermal breakage than annealed or heat-strengthened glass
-if breakage occurs, the glass breaks up into small, cubical fragments, which are not threatening to humans
-Conforms to American standards Australian Certification .
*All work done on glass (beveling, cutting, bending, etc. ) must be done before tempering
