Tempering & Heat Strengthening
Utilizing advanced convection technology to create high-performance safety glass with perfect optical clarity and structural strength. Every unit is engineered for maximum durability in compliance with North American ANSI Z97.1 and CAN/CGSB 12.1 safety standards.
State-of-the-Art Tempering Line
Tempering & Heat Treatment
Tempered Glass
- Superior Safety Designed to break into small, blunt-edged granules rather than sharp shards, virtually eliminating the risk of serious injury.
- Extreme Strength Four to five times stronger than standard glass through a controlled thermal-toughening process — highly resistant to heavy impacts and wind loads.
- Thermal Resilience Built to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations and high heat absorption, preventing the thermal stress cracks that occur in standard glass.
Heat Strengthened Glass
- Enhanced Strength Twice as strong as standard annealed glass, easily handling the intense heat absorption and temperature swings common in high-performance tinted or reflective units.
- Engineered for Reliability The premier choice for commercial facades and hard-to-reach installations, offering a specialized balance of increased strength and exceptional long-term stability.
- Post-Breakage Stability Breaks into larger fragments that remain locked within the window frame, maintaining the building's weather barrier and superior post-breakage integrity.
Heat Soaking: Enhancing Reliability
After tempering or heat strengthening, glass safety and reliability can be elevated to the maximum level with heat soaking. This specialized process accelerates the expansion of nickel sulfide (NiS) inclusions through controlled thermal testing, ensuring that any unstable panes are identified and eliminated before they ever reach the job site.
The heat-soaking process accelerates expansion of nickel sulfide (NiS) inclusions, causing unstable panes to break in our oven — not on your job site.
Virtually eliminates the risk of spontaneous shattering after installation, significantly reducing emergency replacement resources and potentiality.
The industry standard for high-rise facades, glass railings, and overhead glazing where structural reliability is non-negotiable.
