Laminated & Curved Glass

Laminated glass is two or more panels of glass permanently bonded together with one or more plastic interlayers (polyvinyl-butyral or PVB) using heat and pressure. The glass and interlayers can be a variety of thicknesses designed to meet building requirements as necessary. Laminated glass can be broken, but the fragments tend to adhere to the plastic layer and remain largely intact, reducing the risk of injury. Laminated glass is considered “safety glass” and meets the requirements of the various code organizations that set standards for safety.
Curved glass also known as bent glass, curved glass is glass that has been reheated and shaped, usually over a metal mold, to a desired bend or curvature, and left to cool in that position.
