Our Clear Float Flat Tempered Glass is engineered for superior strength and maximum safety, utilizing a sophisticated thermal tempering process. By heating high-quality annealed glass to 620-680°C and applying rapid quenching, we create a high-stress surface layer that significantly enhances impact resistance and structural integrity compared to standard glass.
Designed for versatility and durability, this premium architectural glass is a preferred choice for modern construction and automotive applications. From shower enclosures to high-traffic commercial partitions, our tempered glass ensures a secure environment by shattering into small, blunt fragments upon breakage, minimizing the risk of injury while maintaining exceptional optical clarity.

| Feature | Standard Float Glass | Tempered Glass |
|---|---|---|
| Impact Resistance | Low (Fragile) | Very High (Strong) |
| Breakage Safety | Sharp Shards (Dangerous) | Blunt Grains (Safe) |
| Thermal Tolerance | Low (Prone to cracking) | High (Heat Resistant) |
| Lifespan/Durability | Moderate | Extended / High-Durability |
| Maintenance Cost | Higher Replacement Rate | Lower Long-term Cost |
Tempered glass undergoes a thermal or chemical treatment that increases its strength and changes the way it breaks. While regular glass breaks into dangerous shards, tempered glass breaks into small, relatively harmless granular chunks.
No, tempered glass cannot be cut, drilled, or milled after it has been tempered. Any attempt to do so will cause the entire sheet to shatter. All sizing and hole drilling must be completed during the cutting phase before the heating process.
By adhering to standards like GB15763.2-2005, we ensure that the glass breaks into a specific number of fragments per area. For example, glass ≥ 5mm must have over 40 fragments in a 50mm50mm area, ensuring no large, sharp pieces remain.
It is highly recommended for safety-critical areas including shower enclosures, glass doors, tabletops, automotive side windows, and commercial partitions where human impact is likely.
Yes, tempered glass has significantly higher thermal stability than regular glass. This makes it ideal for oven doors and fireplace screens, as it can withstand rapid temperature changes without shattering.
We offer a wide range of standard thicknesses including 3.2mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm, all of which can be customized to your specific size requirements.
