At T Grup Cam, our Toughened & Heat Strengthened Glass is designed for high strength, durability, and safety, making it an essential choice for modern architecture and industrial applications. Produced through a controlled thermal or chemical treatment process, our glass offers superior resistance to impact, heat, and mechanical stress while ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
Benefits:
High Strength – Up to 5 times stronger than standard glass, offering superior impact resistance.
Safety & Security – When broken, it shatters into small, blunt pieces, minimizing injury risk.
Heat & Thermal Shock Resistance – Withstands extreme temperatures and sudden changes without breaking.
Versatile Applications – Ideal for windows, doors, façades, partitions, and furniture.
Customizable Options – Available in various thicknesses, coatings, and sizes to meet project requirements.
Applications:
Minimizes injury risk by shattering into small, blunt pieces upon impact.
Offers exceptional resistance to bending and mechanical stress.
Minimizes heat loss, lowering energy consumption and heating costs.
At T Grup Cam, we prioritize quality, precision, and transparency in our manufacturing processes. One of the natural effects of the toughening process is the occurrence of glass waviness, an inherent characteristic that should be considered when designing façades and large glazed surfaces.
Directional Hardening
To minimize the visual distortion of reflected images on façades, we recommend directional toughening. This means that if the glass is toughened along its height, the waviness effect will be perpendicular to this dimension. Understanding and applying proper toughening orientation ensures better visual consistency in architectural designs.
Heat Strengthened Glass
Heat Strengthened Glass (TVG) differs from fully toughened glass in terms of its breakage pattern. In case of damage, TVG remains in the frame, reducing the risk of injury and maintaining structural integrity.
Key Characteristics of Heat Strengthened Glass:
Stronger than annealed glass but less brittle than toughened glass
Retains fragments within the frame upon breakage
Ideal for applications where controlled breakage is required
Not classified as safety glass but offers increased durability
Due to its unique properties, heat strengthened glass is becoming a preferred alternative to fully toughened glass in specific architectural and glazing applications. At T Grup Cam, we provide expert guidance and customized solutions to ensure the best glass selection for your projects.
Toughening type | Glass thickness [mm] | Minimum dimensions [mm] | Maximum dimensions [mm] T-thermofloat |
Standard | 4 | 100×250 | 3210×4500 |
5-19 | 100×250 | 3210×9000 |
In order to facilitate the changes, we have adopted ISO 14001, the worldwide management system for environmental protection.
