What’s the difference between PVB and SGP laminated glass?

PVB laminated glass is excellent for general safety and sound insulation. SGP laminated glass offers higher strength, better edge stability, and is preferred for structural and exterior uses.

Can laminated glass break?

Yes, but the interlayer holds the fragments together, preventing injury or falling pieces.

Is laminated glass suitable for skylights and curtain walls?

Absolutely. It’s commonly used for both due to its strength and safety performance.

Can laminated glass block UV light?

Yes, our safety laminated glass blocks more than 99% of UV radiation, protecting interiors from fading.

What customization options are available for laminated glass?

Reach Building offers custom thickness, colors, patterns, shapes, curved bending, and interlayer choices (PVB or SGP).
