Safety glass is a type of glass specifically designed to reduce the risk of injury in the event of breakage. One common type of safety glass is tempered glass, which is created through a process of extreme heating and rapid cooling, resulting in a product that is much stronger and more durable than traditional glass. When tempered glass does break, it shatters into small, blunt pieces rather than sharp, jagged shards, making it safer for individuals who may come into contact with the broken glass.

Another type of safety glass is laminated glass, which consists of multiple layers of glass with a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) sandwiched in between. This design helps the glass to stay intact even when broken, as the PVB layer holds the glass fragments together. Laminated glass is commonly used in car windshields and skylights, providing protection against injuries from flying debris or falling glass. Overall, safety glass is an essential component in ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals in various settings, from homes and offices to vehicles and commercial buildings.
