12mm Toughened Glass

Overview


12mm toughened glass is a robust and stylish option commonly used in modern architectural designs, particularly for frameless balustrades such as 'Frameless', 'Spigot', and 'Standoffs'. This thickness combines safety and aesthetic appeal, making it a popular choice for various applications. However, it is essential to note that 12mm toughened glass is only suitable for balustrades at low levels, specifically those less than 600mm from the ground. For installations above this height without a handrail, laminated glass is recommended to ensure compliance with safety regulations.

Key Characteristics & Uses

  • Strength and Durability:
    12mm toughened glass provides excellent strength, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and applications requiring enhanced safety. It can withstand significant impacts and is resistant to shattering.

  • Applications:

    • Frameless Balustrades: This thickness is perfect for our popular frameless styles, including 'Frameless', 'Spigot', and 'Standoffs'. These designs create an elegant and unobstructed view while ensuring safety.

    • Low-Level Installations: Best suited for balustrades that are less than 600mm from the ground, 12mm toughened glass offers a modern look while maintaining structural integrity.

    • Safety Compliance: It’s important to note that balustrades over 600mm without a handrail should use laminated glass to meet safety standards.

  • Aesthetic Appeal:
    The sleek and transparent nature of 12mm toughened glass enhances the style of any space, making it a popular choice in both residential and commercial settings.

  • Processing:
    12mm toughened glass can be cut to size and shaped appropriately before the toughening process. Finishing touches such as edge polishing or drilling holes can be done afterward to meet specific design requirements.

Conclusion

12mm toughened glass is an exceptional choice for those looking to incorporate modern design elements into their projects, particularly in low-level balustrades. Its combination of strength, style, and clarity makes it a sought-after material in contemporary architecture.
