  • Despite piles of debris outside a building, the glass doors remain intact.

    Prepare for seismic events.

Protect against spontaneous glass breakage.

  • A video shows how impurities in tempered glass can result in spontaneous explosions.

    Fortify your glass to reduce the risk of injury or damage.
