Flat safety glasses

 

Safety glasses protect people or property from third parties and reduce the risk of injury in accidents. Building regulations and safety instructions often set minimum requirements for the use of safety glass.

Our product range belongs to the most versatile ones on the market. Thanks to the versatile production lines and our competent staff, we are able to manufacture very advanced and challenging safety glass products also with very short delivery times, when necessary.

Our level safety glass offer includes

  • laminated glass
  • tempered glass
  • laminated tempered glass

Laminated safety glass

A laminated safety glass consists of the minimum of two glass plates with an elastic plastic film laminated in between them. The film is melted in between the glasses under high pressure and temperature. The safety characteristics of laminated glass are based on the elastic plastic film in between the glasses, keeping the broken pieces of glass together – a laminated glass pane remains in its frames, penetration is prevented, and the risk of injuries is reduced considerably thanks to the laminating process. Laminating does not affect the optical qualities of glasses.

In addition to personal safety, laminated glass is used in locations where protection is needed e.g. against breaking in, vandalism, shooting etc. external threats. In those cases multi-layered glasses equipped with thick PVB films are used.

Coloured glasses

Coloured glasses are used first of all to provide the building an impressive look. When a certain hue is being looked for, it is possible to use coloured films, coloured glasses or combinations of them. Thanks to the wide range of coloured films and glasses, we are able to offer a really great number of different colour variations.

Sound insulating glasses

Sound insulating glass is being used to improve the sound insulation of a building project. Laminated safety glass is always sound insulating, nevertheless, the sound insulation can be improved using thicker laminating foils, a custom-built Sound Control film and thicker glasses.

Burglar-proof glasses

The purpose of use of a burglar-proof glass is to prevent breaking in through the glass. Thanks to its quality, burglary prevention glasses provide an excellent solution for protecting business premises and valuable buildings. Our burglar-proof glasses are tested and type approved.

SentryGlass Plus

SentryGlass laminating foil is used in locations where extreme qualities are being demanded from the laminated safety glass, however, with the desire of maintaining the light weight of the glass structure. 


 

Tempered safety glass

The strength of tempered safety glass is based on the thermal treatment applied to the glass. The strength of tempered glass is increased approx. from three- to five-fold compared with untreated glass. When the glass breaks, the safety characteristics of tempered glass are emphasized. Glass breaks into small fragments without causing bigger wounds when getting into skin contact.

The design is often based on the increasing need for bigger glass surfaces, concealed fixing and structures applied without casement and framework. Thanks to better durability, safety and bigger glass sizes, tempered safety glass is the only reasonable alternative for these challenging structures. 

The tempered safety glass manufactured by Tambest Glass Solutions represents the absolute top in the line.


Tempered laminated safety glass

The mechanical durability and tolerance of temperature differences, characteristic of tempered safety glass as well as the qualities of laminated safety glass, binding fragments and burglar resistance, can be achieved simultaneously by combining two types of safety glass. Among other things, canopies, balustrades, panorama elevators and glass structures at main entrances are often realized using tempered and laminated safety glass.

The laminated tempered safety glass produced as the result of the cooperation of our laminating and tempering lines belongs to the highest rank of safety glasses, as far as installability and optics are concerned.
