Glass Products FAQ Section
Q: What safety features do your glass products offer?
A: Our glass products include multiple safety options. Tempered glass is 4-5 times stronger than regular glass and breaks into small, relatively harmless pieces. Laminated glass features a protective interlayer that holds the glass together when broken. We also offer fire-rated glass that can withstand high temperatures for up to 120 minutes.
Q: How do I choose the right thickness for my glass products?
A: The appropriate thickness depends on your application. For standard windows in residential buildings, 4-6mm is typically sufficient. For doors or high-traffic areas, we recommend 8-10mm tempered glass. Commercial storefronts often require 10-12mm glass, while glass floors or structural elements may need 12mm or thicker glass products.
Q: What maintenance do glass products require?
A: Glass products are relatively low maintenance. Regular cleaning with a mild detergent and soft cloth is sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. For exterior glass, we recommend cleaning at least twice annually to maintain visibility and appearance. Special coatings may require specific cleaning solutions - consult our care guides for detailed instructions.

Installation Guidelines
Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance of glass products. We recommend:
- Using professional installers for large or complex projects
- Allowing for proper expansion gaps (typically 3-5mm)
- Using appropriate framing materials (aluminum, uPVC, or timber)
- Ensuring adequate structural support for heavy glass panels
- Following local building codes and regulations

Glass Products FAQ Section
Q: How long do glass products typically last?
A: With proper installation and maintenance, our glass products can last 20-30 years or more. The longevity depends on environmental factors and usage. Tempered glass maintains its strength indefinitely, while sealed insulated glass units typically have a lifespan of 10-20 years before potential seal failure. We offer warranties ranging from 5-15 years depending on the product type.
Q: Can glass products be recycled?
A: Yes, glass products are 100% recyclable without loss of quality. Our manufacturing process incorporates up to 30% recycled content. At end-of-life, glass can be crushed and remelted to make new glass products. We recommend checking with local recycling facilities as some may have specific requirements for processing architectural glass.
Q: What certifications do your glass products have?
A: Our glass products meet or exceed numerous international standards including ANSI Z97.1, CPSC 16 CFR 1201, EN 12150, and AS/NZS 2208. We are ISO 9001 certified for quality management and many of our products carry CE marking for European compliance. Specific products may have additional certifications for fire resistance, security, or energy performance.

Glass Products FAQ Section
Q: How are glass products packaged for shipping?
A: We use specialized packaging to ensure safe delivery of glass products. All glass edges are protected with foam or rubber edge protectors. Panels are separated by interleaving paper or foam sheets. For larger shipments, glass is crated in A-frame wooden containers with cushioning materials. We use "FRAGILE" labeling and require signature upon delivery for accountability.
Q: What is your return policy for glass products?
A: Due to the custom nature of most glass products, we generally don't accept returns unless there was a manufacturing defect or shipping damage. Claims must be made within 5 business days of receipt with photographic evidence. For stock items, we may accept returns within 14 days if the products are in original, unopened packaging. A restocking fee of 15-25% may apply.
Q: Do you offer installation services for glass products?
A: Yes, we partner with certified installation teams across our service areas. Our professional installers are trained in proper handling techniques and follow strict safety protocols. Installation services include measurement verification, hardware selection, and post-installation inspection. We provide a separate warranty for installation workmanship in addition to the product warranty.
