Laminated float glass is a type of safety glass that is made by sandwiching a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) between two or more sheets of float glass. This process involves bonding the layers of glass and PVB together under heat and pressure, creating a strong and durable composite material. The PVB layer helps to hold the glass together in the event of an impact, reducing the risk of injury or damage. This makes laminated float glass a popular choice for applications such as windows, doors, skylights, and facades in buildings, as well as in automotive windshields. Laminated float glass can also offer additional benefits such as improved noise reduction and UV protection.

Features:
- Impact Resistance: The glass is designed to resist accidental or deliberate impact, providing added safety and security
- Fragment Retention: In the event of breakage, the fragments adhere to the interlayer and are retained in place, reducing the risk of injury and damage to property. By thickening the interlayer, the glass can also be used for protective purposes
- UV Protection: The glass offers high UV protection, reducing the rate of fading for furnishings and finishes
- Noise Dampening: The glass provides superior noise dampening over the same thickness as regular glass, creating a more peaceful and quiet space
- Thickness Range: The glass is available in a range of standard thicknesses between 5.38mm and 12.76mm, with a choice of clear, tinted (toned), and translucent interlayers
- Noise Reduction: Compared to float glass of the same thickness, the glass provides superior noise reduction
- Versatility: The glass can be used in monolithic form or combined with K&K performance IGU to increase energy efficiency, added safety, and noise reduction
Benefits:
- Safety and Security: The impact-resistant and fragment retention features of the glass enhance safety and security
- Reduced Risk of Injury and Damage: The fragment retention feature reduces the risk of injury and damage to property in the event of breakage
- Protection for Furnishings and Finishes: The high UV protection feature reduces the rate of fading for furnishings and finishes, increasing their lifespan
- Enhanced Comfort: The superior noise dampening and noise reduction features create a more comfortable and peaceful living or working environment
- Aesthetic Appeal: The glass is available in a range of thicknesses and interlayer options, allowing for customization and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of any space
- Energy Efficiency: The ability to combine the glass with K&K performance IGU increases energy efficiency, reducing heating and cooling costs
