For Total Safety, Choose Laminated Glass
Laminated or coupled glass, along with armored and tempered glass, belongs to the so-called safety crystals. These are used for accident prevention, anti-vandalism, anti-intrusion, and shatterproof purposes in residential, commercial, or industrial construction. Composed of two or more glass sheets held together by specific PVB (polyvinyl butyral) adhesive films, laminated safety glass is a structural material that offers high levels of both passive and active security.
In addition to being particularly resistant to intrusion and impact, laminated glass is perfectly safe even in the event of accidental breakage. The PVB film prevents the dispersion of sharp shards, keeping the breakage localized at the point of impact and preventing accidents. These characteristics make laminated glass ideal for structural applications, ensuring a high-quality technical finish in compliance with strict building safety regulations.
Laminated Glass: Everything You Need to Know
Invented in 1909 by the French chemist Edouard Benedictus, laminated glass is available in various formats, models, and colors. It is widely used in commercial, domestic, and industrial sectors—perfect for shop windows, bank glazing, and windshields for cars, trains, and planes. These laminated crystals protect people and environments from break-ins, vandalism, and potential damage resulting from glass breakage.
Furthermore, it is possible to increase the level of protection by adding more layers and increasing the thickness of the glass and PVB, resulting in bulletproof or even explosion-proof glass. This versatility allows for customized solutions that prioritize domestic comfort and acoustic silence, as the plastic interlayer also acts as a sound dampener.
