The Safety, Integrity and Performance Advantages of HMI Laminated Glass.
Laminated glass is safe to people even when broken, making it a natural choice for so many residential and commercial specialty glass applications. Glass railings, glass stair treads and glass awnings all utilize laminated interlayers, as do glass sport courts, glass signage, glass walls and other architectural glass applications. Compatible with US Glass Canvas digital printing, laminated and printed glass combined creates a spell-binding multi-dimensional effect.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is laminated glass?
Laminated glass is the bonding together of two or more pieces of glass with interlayers for increased glass impact resistance. In the event that laminated glass breaks, the fragments of broken glass bind to the thin film interlayer, preventing the glass fragments from creating injury.
Why use laminated glass?
The merits of using laminated glass include:
- Durability
- Heat resistance
- Moisture resistance
- Sound insulation
- Strong anti-shocking & anti-breaking properties
- UV interlayer prevents fading
- Saves refrigerating energy
- Reduces transmission of light
