LAMINATED WINDSHIELDS

Laminated windshields are used in practically all automobiles in the world. So critical to passenger safety, that most countries have made the usage of laminated windshield mandatory by law.
The manufacturing process starts with profile cutting followed by grinding, washing and silk printing. Two pieces are paired together and loaded into the furnace to give them the required shape and curvature. The pair is separated and cleaned before assembly of the PVB interlayer. This assembly is pre-passed in vacuum under controlled temperature (deairing process) before the glass goes into the autoclave for final adhesion. The glass is then exposed to extensive tests and finally approved for usage.

Advantages

• It is highly resistant to penetration, thus it ensure safety.
• It localizes breakage at the point of impact, thus not hampering visibility.
• In case of breakage, the broken pieces continue to stick up to the PVB interlayer, eliminating the danger of glass sharpnels.
• In case of head impact accident, the injury is minimized due to the windshield flexibility.

STRUCTURAL GLAZING

Structural Glazing means that the glass acts as a structural support to the other parts of the building. It lets architects create a complete glass envelope, with facades on any plane. Hence, you can build highly attractive working environments with more light and a greater feeling of space.

Applications

1. The structural glazing curtain wall adds more beauty to the building compared to the traditional one.
2. The adhesive sealant that is used is UV proof, hence, it adds more thermal resistance to the whole unit unlike the conventional sealant.
3. Wide variety of single, laminated, and double glazed can be used as a curtain wall providing a complete flexibility in performance as well as appearance.
4. It can combine silk screening and sand blasting glass or decoration.
5. In the early stage before carrying out the project, an accurate study of the wind load and other environmental issue is put into consideration to make sure that everything is heading to the right direction.

Our insulating glass is produced by using the best quality materials and equipment currently available in the glass industry world–wide. Lamssat Faa insulating glass is composed of two or more of glass sheets separated by an aluminium spacer filled with dehydrated air to ensure freedom from moisture. The spacer bar corners are bent while the unit edges are scaled with polysulphide to ensure strength.

With insulating glass, a wide variety of glass combination is possible to suit the special heat, light or security requirements of a given project. This wide range includes laminated tempered or heat-strengthened glass; employing clear tinted, high performance reflective or low-E glass. Because of added advantages insulating glass is known to be the best window material to meet the Middle East climatic conditions and the best alternative for reducing cooling/heating costs. The glass also prevents external noises from pouring in. Moreover, the low heat loss, the non-misting and the noise reducing properties of the insulating glass make it crucial for hospitals, hotels, restaurants, show rooms, airport buildings, laboratories as well as in commercial and industrial line-ups.

 The tempered glass is nearly five times stronger than the annealed and meets glass impact resistance standards worldwide. The risk of personal injury is minimized; thanks to the increased strength and safety of the tempered glass. Moreover, when it does break, it fractures into small harmless pieces.
