Glass laminating
Glass laminating
Process
Lamination is the process of joining two or more glasses together under the action of heat and pressure and vacuum under controlled conditions in order to improve the mechanical properties and safety of the glass. The glasses are bonded with a special strong film of thermoplastic polymer-polyvinylbutyral PVB or ethylene vinyl acetate EVA which can be transparent, semi-transparent, opaque or colored. Laminated glass is joined by PVB film from the German manufacturer TROSIFOL, EVA film from the Spanish manufacturer Pujol Evalam and the Austrian manufacturer K&K EvaTekk in different thicknesses in maximum dimensions of the piece 600x320cm. In case of breakage, such glass does not scatter, but remains as a whole. In the frame of laminated glass, it is possible to combine flat and curved glass of different types: tempered, ornament, colored, reflective, low-emission, enameled or printed. Numerous combinations form glasses in multiple levels of protection and for different uses.
Dimensions and shapes
Flat glass, irregularly shaped glass as well as bent glass can be laminated. The total thickness of the laminated package is 90mm and the maximum dimensions that can be laminated are 600x320cm. APPLICATION Entrance doors, railings, shop windows, floors, canopies, counters, banks, exchange offices, pool glazing. For special purposes when additional security is required, Trosifol SentryGlass and Pujol ABAR foils are used in combination with polycarbonate layers.
Safety and quality
In order to ensure the best quality of lamination as well as product safety, strict quality control and weekly testing of samples is carried out by an AMSS accredited laboratory according to EN 12543 standard.
