Understand the Different Types of Glass

When it comes to glazing, understanding the different types of glass available is essential for making informed decisions. Each type of glass has unique characteristics and applications, so let’s explore the differences between standard float glass, toughened glass, laminated glass, and SentryGlas.

Float glass breakage pattern

Float Glass

Standard float glass is a traditional type of glass commonly used in windows and doors. It is manufactured by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, which results in a smooth surface with uniform thickness.

It is relatively inexpensive and easy to produce, making it a popular choice for residential and commercial applications. However, it is more prone to breaking than other types of glass.

Toughened glass breakage pattern

Toughened Glass

Toughened glass is processed by heating standard float glass and then rapidly cooling it. This process creates a glass that is stronger and more resistant to impact and thermal stress compared to standard float glass.

It is considered a safety glass because when it breaks, it shatters into small, blunt pieces, reducing the risk of injury. It is commonly used in applications where safety is a concern.

Laminated glass breakage pattern

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass is made by bonding two or more layers of glass together with a plastic interlayer under heat and pressure. This creates a strong, durable glass that holds together when shattered.

It is also considered a safety glass because even when broken, the glass remains in place, held together by the interlayer. This type of glass is often used in applications where security or protection from flying glass is important.

Laminated glass breakage pattern

Sentry Glass

SentryGlas is a type of laminated glass that uses an ionoplast interlayer instead of the traditional PVB interlayer. The ionoplast interlayer is stronger and more rigid than PVB, providing enhanced strength and stiffness to the glass.

It offers improved clarity and edge stability compared to traditional laminated glass. It is often used in structural applications where strength and safety are very important.

Standard

Standard clear glass is a versatile and widely-used type of glass known for its clarity and transparency. While it is typically colorless, it may have a slight green tint due to the presence of iron oxide in the raw materials used to make the glass.

Low iron glass close up image

Low-Iron

Low iron glass is made with a reduced iron content, which makes it clearer and more transparent than standard glass. It is often used in applications where clarity and aesthetics are important, such as in display cases and architectural features.

Tinted glass with different colours

Tinted

Tinted glass is treated with a special film that reduces the amount of light and heat that passes through it. It is available in various shades and can help improve energy efficiency and privacy.

Frosted

Frosted glass is treated with acid or sandblasted to create a frosted appearance. It is commonly used in bathrooms, offices, and other areas where privacy is desired.
