Laminated glass won’t shatter and is arguably a bit stronger due to the extra<br />
layers. But it is still normal (annealed) glass. Toughened glass can be incredibly<br />

Which to use depends on several factors, including safety regulations. If you want<br />
to ensure someone can’t fall through a pane of glass, such as a large window or<br />

but once it breaks it leaves a hole, creating an ongoing hazard.<br />

often has to be toughened. Toughened glass is distinctive enough to have its own<br />
standards: by law each toughened panel must have a stamp on it, identifying the<br />
company and other information such as numbered codes. The same is true for<br />
