Safety glass is specialized glass designed to minimize injury risk when broken by either remaining intact or breaking into small, dull-edged pieces. The two main types are tempered glass (heat-treated to increase strength) and laminated glass (layers bonded with PVB interlayers that hold fragments in place if broken). Mandated by building codes for hazardous locations like doors, windows near floors, skylights, and automobile windshields, safety glass provides crucial protection against impact injuries. This essential safety material meets strict regulatory standards and testing requirements, offering peace of mind in environments where standard glass would pose significant risks.
