With the advent of the float glass technology, the mass production of flat and uniform premium glass has become possible, while also enriching the variety of processed glass types. In addition to the commonly used high-strength tempered glass, there are also options such as frosted glass for privacy protection, dimmable glass, and laminated glass and wired glass that enhance bulletproof and safety features. In this article, we will mainly introduce laminated glass and wired glass, explaining their characteristics.

Advantages of Laminated Glass

Even when shattered, glass fragments adhere to the film, maintaining a clean and smooth surface. This effectively prevents injury from sharp edges and piercing through falls, ensuring personal safety.

In North America and Europe, most architectural glass is laminated, not only to prevent injury accidents but also due to its excellent resistance to seismic and intrusion. When the glass breaks safely, it may shatter under the impact of a heavy ball, but the entire piece of glass remains an integrated laminate. The shards and sharp small fragments still adhere to the middle film. This type of glass, when broken, does not scatter, and is commonly used in vehicles and other modes of transportation. Tempered glass requires a significant impact force to break, and once shattered, it fragments into countless fine particles, with only a few shards remaining in the frame. Regular glass shatters upon impact, producing a typical破碎 pattern with many elongated, sharp-edged fragments. When wired glass breaks, the hole is surrounded by a mesh-like pattern of fragments, and there are more glass shards around the penetration point, with the metal wires breaking into varying lengths.
