20 times safer than armored glass: light weight safety glass by SILATEC acts like a wall of glass. And it is significantly lighter and thinner than the heavy, thick armored glass. How does that work? With an intelligent combination of different, extremely impact resisting and resistant materials, using a special, in-house developed adhesive. And with more than 50 years experience in developing light weight safety glass. The safest safety glass pane in the world. Of course: Made in Germany, by a family business in Gelting at the foot of the Bavarian Alps.
The safest safety glass in the world can be found in the German Reichstag. At the G7 and the G20 summits. In embassies. In the Van Gogh museum. In the display windows of the most exclusive jewelers. In luxurious mansions. Which means, everywhere where safety cannot be compromised. The astonishing low weight of our safety glass pane makes of course also transport and installation easier, in addition, light weight safety glass relieves the hinges, especially in old buildings. By the way: In comparison to traditional armored glass, safety glass by SILATEC has no green tint - our safety glass pane is completely transparent. If a better, light weight safety glass would exist, then we would produce it.
Quite the contrary. Light weight safety glass opens completely new opportunities: You are now erecting walls made of safety glass panes where you planned walls in the past for safety reasons. Large area glass fronts open the space and let light and air flow into the object. We produce light weight safety glass up to a length of eight meters, the windows frames are available in all forms, colors and materials.
Of course. We have many years of experience with retrofitting light weight safety glass. In old buildings and even in landmarked buildings. For new buildings it is of course meaningful to plan safety glass from the beginning.
Caution: Safety windows are tested in accordance with the standard - however, the light weight safety glass is not tested! The glass listed in the standard is quickly knocked in. Therefore, the recommendation:
For RC2 and RC3 windows: light weight safety glass, type SILATEC P6B
For RC4 to RC6 windows: light weight safety glass, type SILATEC P8B.
