Product Features

1. Aesthetic Versatility

Supports sleek, modern designs with customizable shapes and finishes. It provides the flexibility to work with a wide range of customizable shapes, allowing for unique and tailored forms that fit specific aesthetic requirements. Additionally, it offers various finishes, enabling users to further enhance the look and feel of their designs, whether it's a smooth, polished finish for a more refined appearance or a textured one for added visual interest. This combination of customizable shapes and finishes makes it possible to achieve the desired sleek, modern design.

2. Durability

Strong, impact-resistant, and heat-treated for safety and performance. To ensure both safety and optimal performance, it has been heat - treated. This heat - treatment process modifies the material's internal structure, enhancing its mechanical properties such as hardness, toughness, and durability. This way, users can rely on the product to perform well under different conditions while maintaining a high level of safety.

3. Safety and Security

Tempered and laminated options ensure safe usage in critical applications. These specialized choices are designed to meet the stringent requirements of applications where safety is of utmost importance. The tempered option, through a unique heat - treating process, strengthens the material, making it more resistant to breakage and reducing the risk of shattering into dangerous shards. This is highly beneficial in scenarios such as automotive windshields or industrial machinery viewing panels.

4. Energy Efficiency

Improves insulation and solar control for eco-friendly designs. By improving insulation, it helps to reduce heat transfer, whether it's keeping the warmth in during cold seasons or preventing excessive heat from entering in hot climates.

5. Light Management

Offers superior light transmission and optical clarity. It also provides optical clarity, ensuring that objects viewed through it appear sharp, clear, and free from distortion, delivering an excellent visual experience.

6. Application Flexibility

Used in architecture, automotive, electronics, and more. This particular item or material finds extensive applications across various industries. It is prominently used in architecture, where it may contribute to the structural integrity, aesthetic appeal, or functionality of buildings.

7. Advanced Options

Smart glass integration, self-cleaning coatings, and acoustic insulation.

8. Certificates

Suitable for use as a safety glass as defined by consumer product safety association 16CFR 1201, ansiz 97.1 1984 and BS6262.

Conforms to CCC, AS/NZS2208-1996, EN12150-1, and ASTM C1048. All work done on glass (beveling, cutting, bending, etc) must be done before tempering.

Architecture and Building Design

Facades and Skylights: Curved glass is often used in building facades, offering sleek, modern, and dynamic visuals. Its use in skylights enhances natural light flow while providing a unique design feature.
Staircases and Railings: Curved glass is commonly employed in staircases, railings, and balustrades, providing an elegant, open look while maintaining safety and durability.
Glass Walls and Curtain Walls: In commercial and residential buildings, curved glass walls create a stunning aesthetic while ensuring structural integrity and weather resistance.

Furniture and Interior Design

Glass Tables: Curved glass is used in the design of modern furniture, especially glass tables, where the curve offers both aesthetic value and functional strength.
Display Cases: In retail and museums, curved glass is often used for display cases and counters to offer unobstructed views and a visually appealing display.
Partitions and Room Dividers: Curved glass is employed in interior spaces as partitions or dividers, providing both privacy and a sense of openness without obstructing light.
Bathroom Applications (Shower Doors and Partitions): More elegant looking in the bathroom.

Art and Sculptures

Architectural Art: Curved glass can be integrated into architectural art pieces to provide a dynamic and futuristic look.

Retail and Commercial Displays

Point of Sale Displays: Retail stores often use curved glass in point-of-sale displays to draw attention and create an elegant, high-end look.
Storefronts and Showcases: Curved glass is frequently used in storefront windows or product showcases, enhancing product visibility and the overall design of the store.

Surface Treatments

Edge Treatment: Flat edge, rounded edge, or beveled edge

The product offers three distinct edge treatment options. Firstly, there is the flat edge, which provides a clean, sharp, and straight profile. Secondly, the rounded edge, designed to offer a smoother and more gentle appearance, eliminating harsh corners. Thirdly, the beveled edge, adding a touch of elegance with its angled cut.

Drilling: Available for mounting or installation purposes

Drilling services are provided, specifically catering to mounting or installation requirements. This allows for easy integration of the product into various setups.

Sandblasting: Can be sandblasted for decorative finishes

Sandblasting is an available option. It can be used to create decorative finishes, adding a unique and textured look to the surface.

Brushed Finish: Available for a matte surface texture

For those desiring a matte surface texture, a brushed finish is available. This finish not only gives a sophisticated and understated appearance but also has practical benefits in reducing glare.

Coatings: UV protection, anti-reflective, or other coatings available upon request

A range of coatings can be provided. UV protection coatings safeguard the product from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays. Anti - reflective coatings enhance visibility by minimizing reflections. Additionally, other coatings can be made available upon request, tailored to specific needs.

Packaging: used wooden boxes or cases, the cases should be easy loading, unloading and transportation. Each case needs to be packed with stuff of the same thickness and size.

Q: What specifications do I need to provide when customizing curved glass?

A: You need to clarify four key details: ① Bending radius (critical for shaping complexity, especially for small-radius designs); ② Exact dimensions (must match your design drawings, with standard size range 150×150mm–12000×3600mm); ③ Thickness (4mm–12mm is common, selected based on scenarios like building facades or furniture); ④ Glass type (e.g., tempered, laminated, Low-E glass) as per usage needs.

Q: What is the delivery time for curved glass, and can it be expedited?

A: The standard delivery time is 7 days. Expedited service is available for urgent projects, but the specific timeline depends on your order quantity, customization complexity (e.g., double-curvature designs), and production schedule.

Q:What surface treatments and coatings are available for curved glass?

A: Common options include: ① Edge treatments (flat, rounded, beveled); ② Decorative finishes (sandblasting for matte effects, brushed textures); ③ Functional coatings (UV protection, anti-reflective, self-cleaning); ④ Drilling (for mounting/installation).
