Toughened Glass

Toughened glass is a safety glass with increased strength both physically and thermally. Glass that has been toughened is 4 to 5 times stronger than non-toughened float or annealed glass.

Toughened glass is produced by heating it in specialist toughening ovens before it is cooled in a control environment. It can withstand greater temperatures, impact and stress than untreated float glass.

All of our standard toughened glass is stamped EN 12150-1C2 and our toughened glass units EN1279. We can toughen glass from 4mm up to 19mm thickness and have the capability to produce toughened glass up to 3,2000mm x 6,000mm.
