Commercial
Windows & Doors

Toughened glass is one of the most commonly specified products for commercial windows and doors. It offers increased strength compared to standard annealed glass and, when broken, fractures into small pieces to reduce the risk of injury. It is processed to AS/NZS 2208 and is suitable for many safety glazing applications.

Laminated glass consists of two or more panes bonded together with a durable interlayer. It improves safety by helping keep broken glass in place and can also provide additional security, UV protection and noise reduction depending on the glass makeup.

Performance glass is designed to improve the comfort and energy efficiency of commercial buildings by reducing solar heat gain and improving thermal performance. Various options are available depending on your project's requirements.

Available in both toughened and laminated configurations, tinted glass helps reduce glare and solar heat while adding a contemporary architectural finish.

Acoustic laminated glass is designed to reduce the transmission of external noise, making it suitable for offices, education facilities, hotels, healthcare buildings and developments located near busy roads or transport corridors.

Our custom laminated glass range provides extensive flexibility for projects with unique performance or design requirements. Multiple interlayers can be combined to achieve specific colours, safety performance, acoustic properties or decorative finishes. Where required, custom laminated glass can also be processed using heat-strengthened glass rather than toughened glass. Heat-strengthened laminated glass is commonly specified for certain commercial applications where increased strength, thermal stress resistance or specific performance characteristics are required. Final glass make-up should always be confirmed by the project's engineer, architect or qualified glazing professional.

Heat soaking is an additional process carried out after glass has been toughened. It is designed to reduce the risk of spontaneous breakage caused by nickel sulphide inclusions by subjecting the glass to a controlled heat soak cycle before installation. If a panel contains a critical nickel sulphide inclusion, it is more likely to break during the heat soak process rather than after installation. As a result, heat-soaked glass is commonly specified for many commercial applications where reducing the risk of in-service breakage is important. If you're unsure whether heat-soaked glass is suitable for your project, our team can explain the process and discuss the available options.

The most suitable glass depends on the application and project requirements. Common options include toughened glass, laminated glass, performance glass, acoustic glass and tinted glass. Many commercial projects use a combination of these products to achieve the required safety and performance outcomes.

Yes. Our experienced sales team can explain the glass products we process, discuss available processing options and answer questions about our capabilities. Final glass selection and project specifications should always be confirmed by the project's architect, engineer or qualified glazier.

No. Tough Glass processes and supplies glass to the glazing industry and does not provide installation services. If required, we're happy to recommend qualified glaziers who can assist with your project. It is best practice to consult with a qualified glazier who can provide advice on selection and installation of commercial doors and windows, glass and glazing whilst ensuring regulations are met and glass safety is not compromised. We have a range of customers we can happily recommend.
