800 mm
1000 kg/each panel
For our standard laminated glass as safety glass, we use
clear foil with a thickness of 0.76 mm. Also multiple
layers of Polyvinylbutyral (PVB)-foil and glass are available.
On request, we can also process coloured laminated
safety glass.

• impact-resistance (P1A–P5A)**
• manuel attack-resistance (P6B–P8B)**
• bullet resistance (BR1S–BR4S)**
• explosion resistance
• laminated glass with built in alarm-wire
• coloured laminated glass is also available
** in reference to safety glazing standard DIN EN 356
Laminated glass with SI foil achieve good sound
insulation�performance data, even as monolithic
composition e.g. laminated glass 44.2 = 37 dB
With laminated glass and 0,76 mm PVB foil edge shift be
expected max. 1,5 mm/meter edge (max. 5 mm)

• Low-iron extra-clear glass
• Anti-reflective glass
• Satined glass
• Patterned glass
• Screen-printed and enamelled glass
(print only on concave side)
• Solar- and thermal control glass (hard coating/
soft coating/combination of coatings)

*Notice: The values listed under Technical Data are only for guidance. The geometrical parameters of a curved glass pane, the min./max.
values of the parameters as well as the requested glass assembly are closely linked and influence the corresponding limiting values of each
other. Limits of size, dimensions, possible glass thickness and bending angles are determined according to individual arrangement and
thorough technical examination. Restrictions in the form of shape must be expected.
For all curved glass products manufactured in our company, the general tolerance and conditions in accordance to "Guideline
for thermal bend architectural glass products ", BF-datasheet 009/2011 from Bundesverband Flachglas e.V. and the "Guideline
to Assess the Visible Quality of Glass in Buildings." are valid (unless otherwise agreed in writing).

• Heat-soak tested fully tempered (toughened)
safety glass
• Fire resistant glass (in cooperation)
• Alarm Securit®
• Thermovit – heatable glass
It's possible to manufacture curved tempered glass,
curved tempered glass with heat-soak test and curved
heat-strengthened glass into laminated safety glass
and insulated glass to meet every safety and security
specification.
