Protection

Glass was known for its weakness and fragility. Even the word "glass" was used to describe anything fragile. This is not true anymore, glass can be toughened and penetration-proof against any attack by sharp instruments or gunshots while preserving its transparency.

This was realized by using multiple glass layers which are adhered together by using a strong clear adhesive.

By using multilayers of different thicknesses, anti-attack and anti-penetration glass of different levels is available. The most important uses are protection for individuals, properties and valuable possessions, or even for hard usage purposes like glass stair cases and paths or water & wind pressure-proof glass.

At breakage or blasting, glass fragments do not scatter or fly apart since it remains as one unit due to the adhesive layer, and remains one piece until its replacement.

Laminated Glass at Breakage

In some special cases where glass is frequently exposed to excessive heat or continuous friction, the super collection is highly recommended. This collection is marked by its exterior tempered layers, which enable it to overcome excessive heat and continuous friction, i.e. It is distinguished by its firmness and solidity.

General protection of glass is realized by the following:

1- Tempering:
Through tempering, glass is exposed to a sudden cold air stream after being highly heated in order to be tempered or toughened surface compression and become firmer, sometimes more powerful (mechanically) than normal glass, and consequently its heat endurance increases to stand up to 300 degree C.

2- Multiplying layers:
Glass consists of 2 or more layers of glass with interlayers of P.V.B . It is called "Laminated glass".
This type is marked out by its total resistance to penetration and at breakage it remains in one firm piece.
Further multiplying glass layers will consequently add more capacity for penetration resistance and to ultimately becoming bullet-proof.

3- Special fire and radiation proof glass...and other types.
