It is not only related to the lighting, heat insulation, sound insulation effect of the home, but also affects the overall beauty and safety.
Tempered glass
Advantages: high strength, small particles formed after crushing, more secure. In addition, tempered glass also has high heat resistance, can withstand large temperature changes. Disadvantages: tempered glass can no longer be cut, so in practical applications, accurate dimensional planning is required in advance. In addition, the corners of the tempered glass are relatively fragile and easy to damage, so special care is needed during installation and use.
✔️ Application scenario: high-rise buildings, bathroom doors, balcony railings and other places requiring high security.
Laminated glass
Advantages: good sound insulation performance, strong adhesion, strong impact resistance, high safety, even if broken, the gum in the middle will stick the debris is not easy to splash. Disadvantages: relatively weak thermal stability, easy to fog in the rainy season, relatively heavy, high requirements for installation and support structure.
✔️ Application scenarios: Medium to high floors, residential buildings near market roads, viaducts, airports, office Windows, and other Spaces where noise interference needs to be reduced.
Insulating glass
Advantages: The hollow is generally filled with inert gas, the heat insulation and sound insulation performance is not driven by a 10cm concrete wall, which can generally attenuate noise by about 30 decibels, which can meet the needs of most families. Disadvantages: It is easy to cause fog and water in the hollow layer due to poor sealing.
✔️ Application scenario: Suitable for residential and commercial building Windows, street facing houses in cities and places requiring good insulation effect.
Low-E Glass
Advantages: high efficiency and energy saving, can effectively reflect heat radiation without affecting light transmission, reduce heat entry in summer, and prevent indoor heat loss in winter; It reflects ultraviolet light to some extent. Disadvantages: Higher cost.
✔️ Application scenario: room with strong sunlight, room with air conditioning or heating for a long time, area with extreme temperature fluctuation, widely used in green buildings and residential and commercial buildings requiring energy conservation.
Fancy glass
Advantages: strong aesthetics, can carry out a variety of processing (such as frosting, sandblasting, engraving), improve the decoration grade, good light transmission, easy to clean, high durability. Disadvantages: Depending on the specific processing process, there may be specific limitations.
✔️ Applicable scene: wardrobe door, interior partition, decorative wall, etc.
If you want both sound insulation and heat insulation, you can combine the glue/hollow +Low-E according to the budget
If you want sound insulation, heat insulation and good light transmission, you can choose laminated/hollow +Low-E+ white glass
In summary, glass purchase needs to consider the type, demand, budget, installation and maintenance and other aspects. By understanding different types of glass and their advantages and disadvantages, clear personal use needs, Zhicheng Xuan system doors and Windows to provide users with a variety of high-quality glass options, tailored for you to create a safe and comfortable home environment.
