Q 4. What colors are available for tinted tempered glass?
A We offer clear, grey, blue, green, and bronze options, as well as low-iron ultra-clear glass for premium transparency.
-
Q Is tempered glass suitable for outdoor use?
A Yes. Tempered glass is highly resistant to temperature changes and wind loads, making it suitable for exterior applications such as curtain walls, facades, skylights, and railings.
-
Q Can tempered glass be cut or drilled after production?
A No. Once tempered, the glass cannot be cut, drilled, or reshaped.
All processing (cutting, edge polishing, holes, notches) must be completed before tempering.
-
Q What is the maximum size of tempered glass you can produce?
A Reach Building can produce tempered glass panels up to 3300mm × 12000mm, depending on glass thickness and design requirements. Custom dimensions are available upon request.

Q How to Choose the Right Thickness for Your toughened Glass Panels?
A Consider the Application and Location of the toughened Glass Panels:
When choosing the right thickness for your toughened glass panels, it's important to consider the application and location where they will be installed. If you're installing glass panels in an area with high traffic or where there's a risk of impact, such as a storefront or balcony railing, then thicker glass panels are recommended. On the other hand, if you're installing glass panels in an area with lower risk of impact, such as a shower enclosure or tabletop, then thinner glass panels may suffice.
-
Q The Most Common Thicknesses for toughened Glass Panels?
A The most common thicknesses for toughened glass panels are 6mm, 8mm, and 12mm. Thicker glass panels offer higher resistance to impact and can support more weight than thinner ones. For instance, if you're installing a balcony railing that needs to withstand strong winds and heavy loads, then a 12mm thick toughened glass panel would be appropriate. However, if you're installing a shower enclosure that won't be subjected to much force or weight, then a 6mm thick toughened glass panel would work well.
-
Q Will the glass explode in transit？
A After the production is completed, we will carry out a hot dip test to detect potential nickel sulfide particles by heating them and allow them to self-explode in advance, which can reduce the self-detonation rate of tempered glass to 0.1-0.3%. At the same time, special packaging materials are used: high-strength wooden cases, laminated protective MATS or sponge partitions, high-strength wooden cases, laminated protective MATS or sponge partitions.
