Commercial - Reduce smash and grabs, small arms attack, and high powered ballistic assault.

Sound Control: The PVB interlayer in laminated glass lowers exterior sounds. This makes Laminated glass a great option to use in residential, offices, airports, hotels, museums and Libraries.

Energy Control - UV Protection: Combined with Low E, Reflectives, and High Perfomance Tints, laminated glass blocks 99% UV below 380 nanometers.

Safety: Laminated glass is perfectly suited for sloped and overhead applications, such as Solariums, Skylights, Atriums,and Barrel Vaults. It can withstands high wind loading, snow loading and protection from Windblown Debris.

Glass Stairs




Glass stairs or glass staircases are becoming more and more in vogue. AJJ Glass produce glass components for glass staircase systems; i.e. glass stair treads and glass balustrade infill panels.

Glass stairtreads are generally manufactured using a combination of 10mm float and 25mm float, laminated together. A non slip surface can be achieved in several ways, the most popular being an all over sandblast and ritec coat finish. Another popular anti-slip preference is for grooves to be cut into the front edge of the tread.

Approximately 1m² is usually considered to be a practical maximum area for each panel - due to handling considerations. The glasses should be installed with the thicker glass ply uppermost, and consideration must be given to the surface finish of the glass.

Glass Floor panels



Glass floor panels are increasingly popular in contemporary interior and exterior applications. Glass floor panels allow light to pass from underneath to show illumination or to allow light to brighten the space below the floor.

AJJ Glass Products supplies thick laminated glass floor panels to meet your most demanding requirements and you can have patterns, decorative interlayers, colors, textures and more.

Glass floor panels are usually constructed of 2 or more glass panels, laminated together.

Approximately 1m² is usually considered to be a practical maximum area for each panel - due to handling considerations. The glasses should be installed with the thicker glass ply uppermost, and consideration must be given to the surface finish of the glass.

Glass dance floors for instance are usually specified in 15mm float laminated to 25mm float. Corridors are 25mm laminated to 25mm, and for domestic dwellings, 10mm laminated to 19mm is more usual.
