PinnGuard Laminated safety glass, PVB
Laminated safety glass, PVB
PinnGuard bonds glass lites with a PVB interlayer. If the glass cracks, the fragments tend to stay bonded to the interlayer.
Why choose it
- The interlayer helps retain fragments after cracking
- Interlayer options for clear, tinted or acoustic needs
- Can combine with toughened or heat-strengthened lites
Typical uses
- Overhead glazing
- Balustrades
- Windows and facades
- Acoustic partitions
- Display enclosures
How it is processed
Step 1
Clean and stack
Lites are washed and stacked with PVB between them.
Step 2
Pre-press
Air is pressed out and the stack is lightly bonded.
Step 3
Autoclave
A separate autoclave step completes the bond.
Step 4
Inspect
Edges and clarity are checked before dispatch.
Build-up, interlayer and performance are specified per project and confirmed with our technical team.
