Glass is heat-treated for two reasons: the first is to increase its strength to resist external stresses such as wind and snow loads, or thermal loads caused by the sun’s energy. The second is to ...

The glass is then quickly cooled (quenched) with forced air drafts. Typical applications for heat strengthened glass include: lighting fixture lenses, small cover lenses such as MR16s, PR20s, PR30s, ...

Tempered glass, with its higher surface compressive stress of ≥90MPa, offers a significantly stronger resistance to impacts compared to heat-strengthened glass, which has a surface compressive ...

This glass contains 35 percent less embedded carbon ... glass with the best optical properties from every angle and under any lighting condition for fully tempered and heat-strengthened glass. ...

“All our products rely on our proprietary heat-strengthened glass processing technology called nLite technology,” the spokesperson explained.

Ontario’s Building Code will soon require newly constructed buildings to use heat-strengthened laminated glass to prevent balcony glass from breaking and falling to roadways below. Effective ...
