ABOUT TOUGHENED
GLASS
•Toughened glass is a type of safety glass which is prepared to increase the strength of
normal glass. The glass undergoes compression and tension through which, the glass
breaks down into pieces. This can cause injuries and damage and thus, the toughened
glass is used for making windows, doors, tables and such things used on regular basis.
Toughened glass eliminated the possibility of injury and is constructed under strict
supervision to ensure durability and strength.
•Toughened glass is thermally strong than the normal glass. The glass undergoes
intense stress due to which, the strength of glass increases. This glass is made through

thermal tempering process where the annealed glass is heated at or above 720 degrees
and soon after it reaches the heating point, cooling process is performed. The glass thus
