Laminated glass is an excellent alternative to regular glass, offering a tough, strong and unbreakable structure. Laminated glass is suitable for a variety of uses and is an increasingly popular material. If you are considering adding glass to your home or business, you should consider installing laminated glass in its place. If you're not sure what laminated glass is or don't know its benefits, Northglass can help. Here, we've put together this guide to what laminated glass is, its uses and benefits.
Laminated glass consists of two layers of glass that are bonded together by a laminate to form a permanent bond. The middle layer is used to support and hold the glass in place, creating a strong, uniform layer even when broken. Laminated glass is available in different thicknesses and can be made with different glass combinations or coatings to provide different qualities, such as low emissions or increased insulation.

The strength and thickness of laminated glass provides a number of benefits.
ㆍIncreased security: The strength of laminated glass makes it virtually impossible to break, making it difficult for any unauthorized person to enter. Even in the event of a break, the interlayer maintains the strength of the structure, making it very difficult to widen the gap.
ㆍReduce emissions: Low-e glass helps reduce the amount of heat gained from the sun, thus reducing the frequency of air conditioning use and reducing emissions.
ㆍReduces noise pollution: Installing a thick piece of laminated glass causes noise waves to be broken as they pass through the material, helping to reduce noise pollution.
ㆍImproved safety: Since glass does not shatter when broken, it reduces the risk of someone being cut or injured by glass shards.
ㆍResistant to natural disasters: In the event of a natural disaster or changeable weather, laminated glass will remain within its frame, reducing the risk of accidents and making life-threatening situations safer.
ㆍMore design options: Laminated glass is available in a variety of colors, tints or shades and can be manufactured in straight or curved shapes for greater versatility.
