Tempered glass
is glass obtained by heating it to a temperature of 650-680 °C, followed by
rapid uniform cooling by cold air on both sides. As a result of this treatment,
residual compressive stresses are formed in the surface layers of the glass,
providing it with increased mechanical strength, heat resistance, and fracture
safety.

| How to Distinguish Tempered Glass from Ordinary |
Glass, after
tempering, is 5-7 times stronger than usual and also several times stronger in
bending.
In the event of
its destruction with a very strong impact, the glass completely and instantly
breaks up into small fragments without sharp edges. These fragments are not
dangerous to humans.
Tempered glass
withstands significant temperature drops from -70 to 250 °C.
The tempering of
the glass does not change the optical parameters, nor does it change its color
or size.
After the glass
tempering process, mechanical processing is not carried out, as tempered glass
breaks when the voltage distribution is violated.

| Tempered Glass Triplex |
On the tempered
glass, specialists can produce photo printing, UV splice, triplexing, a
continuous or artistic frosting of glass (drawings of different levels of
complexity on demand of the client), glass painting, pasting glass with a film.
Tempered glass
is used for: interior doors; showers; front glazing; office and interior
partitions; trade equipment; shop windows; glass stairs; railings and steps;
shelves; countertops; tables; bar counters; kitchen backsplashes.
For
tempering, transparent, tinted, frosted and patterned glass is used, the
thickness of which can be from 4 mm to 19 mm.
