Tempered Glass: Magical Design Element

Also known as toughened glass, tempered glass is one of the most versatile safety glasses in the market. Their applications are endless, and the benefits make them highly sought after by contractors, engineers, architects, and designers.

In this blog, we discuss just how exceptional the tempered glass is and why it deserves the title of a truly magical design element.

 

 

What Makes Tempered Glass a Game-Changer?

 

We all know that tempered glass gets its name because of how it is manufactured. Glass panels undergo a heat treatment process called tempering. The rapid heating and cooling make tempered glass up to five times stronger. 

 

The tempering process locks in surface and internal tension. Which means, when the glass does break, it breaks into tiny, harmless granules. The exceptional strength of tempered glass panels allows them to withstand high pressure, stress, and temperature.

 

This offers endless benefits as designers can use tempered glass for a wide range of applications, such as:

 

 

 

  • Storefronts
  • Skylights
  • Windows
  • Balconies
  • Balustrades
  • Glass doors
  • Safety barriers
  • Staircase panels


The unique combination of strength, elegance, and customization makes tempered glass a magical element. You can control the transparency through etching and make it look cooler through intricate patterns and designs. The thickness of tempered glass also makes it ideal for keeping noise and the elements at bay.
