Frequently asked questions
-
What is architectural glass?
Architectural glass is any kind of glass that's used in building and construction. It covers everything from partitions to balustrades, from walk-on glass to decorative glass panels. For the peace of mind of architects, builders, personnel and visitors, glass for architecture needs to be in line with UK safety regulations.
-
When should architectural glass be toughened?
If you imagine a pane of glass that shatters into big shards, you're thinking of annealed glass. Toughened glass, by contrast, is built to break into lots of little pieces as a way of reducing the chances of injury.
It's used in everything from car windows to construction. It's a key material for the construction of partitions, balustrades, windows and more.
Architects and builders also use laminated glass. This is a kind of "sandwich" glass where a plastic interlayer is sandwiched between two panes of toughened glass. The result is glass that's highly secure and hard to break.
-
What are the properties of architectural glass?
Glass for construction has to be toughened and energy efficient – however, it's a broad category that covers everything from walk-on glass to digital printing, from sandblasted logos and designs to soundproofed panels.
