Type of Glass

Wired Glassr

Wired glass is a low cost fire-resistant glass, having a wire mesh embedded during the production stage. In the event of breakage, the wired mesh retains glass pieces and prevents them from breaking out under duress. When exposed to fire or high temperatures, the mesh prevents the other side to be prevented from harmful effects of the flame. The wired glass is a perfect addition to any space, where a solid fire barrier is needed. A rarity in residential buildings, the wired mesh is widely used in commercial areas, including business building, schools, public buildings, where this provides emergency exits in the event of fire.

Laminated Glass

Laminated Glass is typically 2 pieces of glass with a plastic inner layer. The most common application for this glass is the windshield of a car. If the windshield is broken, the laminated glass will keep the passenger inside the vehicle. Another common application is in jewelry stores to defend against robbery. The inner layer is .030 thick, providing an excellent ultraviolet screen which can reduce fading in upholstered items and carpets. This type of glass also has sound reduction qualities.
Before installation of laminated glass, you must know certain facts about this kind of glass. It is not only strong and resistant, but it also provides better protection to your residential area.

Tempered glass increases the strength of the glass approximately 4 times; however, the process makes the glass brittle and can warp its surface. The process involves heating the glass to approximately 1400 degrees, then chilling (quenching) it to 200 degrees within 2 minutes. Tempered glass, once tempered, cannot be re-cut without shattering. For this reason, all fabrication must be done before the glass is tempered.
