[1] These products comprise two sheets of float glass that have been toughened first then bonded with the interlayer. The toughening process takes normal annealed float glass and converts it into safety glass. Such products, which include automotive windows, shower screens and glass table-tops, are stronger than annealed glass. Custom toughened laminate glass is made to the size required by the customer, as toughened glass cannot be further cut. Conversely, Oceania Glass’ annealed CLG can be cut to size by the end customer.
