DuPont offers an industry-leading selection of glass laminating solutions.
Each solution features advanced technology that can increase safety, reduce noise, save energy, add
privacy, protect property or expand design and engineering options.

Ordinary window glass is
brittle, breaking into long sharp
pieces which can cause serious
and sometimes fatal injuries.
The principal feature of
laminated safety glass is its
performance under impact.
Interlayers absorb the energy
of the impact, resisting
penetration. Although the glass
may break, the glass fragments
remain firmly bonded to the
interlayer, minimizing the risk
of injuries. Little wonder that
laminated glass is mandatory
for automotive windshields in
almost every industrialized
country in the world and
increasingly specified or
required in architectural glazing.

Laminated glass can be designed to withstand bullets and
bomb blasts by using multiple or thick layers of glass and
interlayer. In prisons, laminated security glass can replace
traditional bars to create a more humane environment
If broken, laminated glass remains in its frame, preventing
interior damage, while reduced flying glass protects people
both indoors and outdoors.
In developed areas subject to heavy winds and rains such
as hurricanes or cyclones, buildings often need extra
protection. Flying debris carried by these winds can
shatter the glass of windows and doors, injuring people
and opening buildings to often devastating further damage.
Laminated glass constructions can be properly designed to
remain intact under impact and keep the envelope of the
home or building sealed. .

Laminated glazings can be manufactured flat or curved, and include annealed, toughened, heat-strengthened, spandrel, wired,
patterned, tinted and reflective glasses. DuPont glass laminating interlayers can be used to add color tints or increase the opacity
of the glazing, for further design aesthetics or privacy needs.
Laminated glass is simple to install. Standard-sized, two-ply glass panels can be cut to size on-site, and can also be drilled or
notched.
Laminated building glass is usually glazed in an annealed form, avoiding the distortion caused by "roller waves" in tempered and
heat-strengthened glass. Sharp reflected images are possible with curtainwalls constructed of laminated annealed glass.
