Laminated vs Tempered Glass: Choosing the Right Solution

When planning a construction or renovation project, choosing between laminated and tempered glass can be challenging. Both offer unique benefits, and understanding their differences is crucial for making the right choice. ## Tempered Glass Tempered glass is heat-treated to increase its strength. It's ideal for applications requiring impact resistance and thermal stability. When broken, it crumbles into small, relatively harmless pieces. **Best for:** - Shower doors - Building facades - Furniture - Windows and doors ## Laminated Glass Laminated glass consists of two or more glass panes bonded with an interlayer (EVA, TPU, or SGP). When broken, the glass fragments adhere to the interlayer, maintaining the barrier. **Best for:** - Overhead glazing - Security applications - Bulletproof installations - Sound insulation ## The Best of Both Worlds At Safe Glass Nigeria Ltd, we offer laminated tempered glass, combining the benefits of both processes.
