Glass Wired is a significantly strengthened material compared to window glass, demonstrating better protection than impact-resistant film, and is in demand in industry, agriculture, social infrastructure and in everyday life.
Glass Wired is used for special glazing of various objects:
translucent external elements of buildings (windows, loggias, facades, entrance lobbies);
skylights;
utility rooms;
fire (escape) hatches and doors;
reception areas in institutions;
emergency exits of sensitive buildings;
internal structural parts of real estate (interior partitions, staircases, elevator shafts), etc.
The glass with a metal mesh inside is used where it is necessary to eliminate the risk of injury by large fragments of glass or to provide anti-vandal protection to optically transparent structures.
Its main function is to prevent accidents due to injury from surfaces bursting from heating and poisoning by combustion products. Heat-resistant glass also plays this role, but due to its high cost, it is more advisable to choose Glass Wired.
First of all, glass wired is used where there is a potential danger of intentional or accidental damage to the glass by hard objects or fire. Externally, such glass reveals itself as cloudy or translucent through the optically transparent layer of wire embedded in it.
Another interesting direction of this product usage is art objects in crowded places. Street statues and decor for permanent and seasonal park decorations are made of this material.
The key potential lies in the use of this material for interior solutions that enhance residential and commercial spaces. For example, it is a good idea to install this type of glass in children’s rooms, in offices, and also in the areas where an interior designer wants to combine the beauty of light-transmitting walls with resistance to open flames and impacts on a budget.
Other applications where glass wired can be used.
Transparent or frosted glass with a steel frame that reliably holds small fragments is indispensable not only in the mentioned above areas. Here is an open list of places where such fire- and vandal-proof material is relevant:
educational institutions;
banks and other credit organizations;
psychoneurological dispensaries, etc.
