Title: What is a Tuffen Glass?


1
WHAT IS TUFFEN GLASS?

2
Tuffen glass is a type that youll find
throughout many residential and commercial
buildings. Since the panes are designed to
maintain the same visual clarity as regular
glass, you might not even notice the difference.
3
There are some key reasons why your glass
installer may recommend this type. Most of them
come down to strength and durability.
4
What Makes Tuffen Glass Different?
5
Tuffen glass is often referred to as toughened.
The panes start out as regular annealed glass,
but they then undergo a special treatment
process.
6
The glass is heated to temperatures above 1100
degrees Fahrenheit. Then, it is cooled rapidly.
This process creates a higher level of center
tension that makes it about 6 times stronger
than regular versions of the material.
7
Where Can You Use Toughened Glass?
8
You can use toughened panes in any part of a
building that you would use regular glass. The
strength that this material offers also expands
your options for adding glass installations.
9
These are just a few of the most common places
where we install this type of material.
10
Shower Enclosures
11
Those gorgeous shower enclosures you see in home
design articles are possible in any home thanks
to toughened glass. Since the possibility of
slipping and falling in a wet area is higher,
youll want to use stronger panes in the shower
enclosure.
12
Toughened glass can be used with both framed and
frameless shower enclosures so that you can
choose from your preferred design.
13
Residential and Commercial Windows and Doors
14
Both homes and business buildings benefit from
having translucent doors and windows that allow
for more sunlight to come inside. Using regular
glass can sometimes pose a problem when the
doors and windows are likely to be hit.
15
Toughened panes are best for any doors and
windows that are placed low enough to the floor
that they could break if someone falls against
them.
16
If one of the panes does break, the toughened
surface causes it to break into small pebble-like
pieces that are less likely to hurt someone.
This also makes it easier to clean up the
broken material.
17
Room Partitions
18
Open office spaces create an airy feel that
enhances business practices. Glass room
partitions help to cut the noise and increase
privacy while still allowing for that open
feeling.
19
Since these panels are also at a higher risk of
being stressed, toughened materials increase
safety in the workplace.
20
Shelves
21
Do you love the look of translucent shelves but
worry about breakage? Toughened glass makes it
possible to create beautiful storage areas
without worrying about the shelves breaking from
the strain of holding up the display.
22
Does Tuffen Glass Come In Different Styles?
23
Like other options, toughened glass can be
tinted or colored to add to your buildings
aesthetics. You can also choose from frosted
and patterned styles for areas where you want
more privacy such as for your shower.
24
We typically recommend Tuffen glass for any
areas of a building that are likely to experience
strong forces if the area is hit by an object or
person. Using toughened glass prevents serious
injuries.
25
Reducing the chance of breakage also helps you to
get the most miles out of your construction or
home remodeling project. Adding strength to the
beauty of regular glass allows for us to create
beautiful custom work without the worry of
breakage.
