Safety Window Glass

Many people hesitate from deviating from the norm of small glass windows as they are worried about the safety aspect. Large glass doors or sliding glass windows can be deemed impractical to have around children as, during play, they could get broken and seriously injure someone. Many people also worry about the protection that glass windows give against intruders. Most of us do not want to have to resort to burglar bars and security gates.

Luckily, thanks to Pilkington, many of these worries do not need to be a concern. Safety glass windows are available from this leading glass manufacturer and allow you to focus on the design element of glass and not the practicalities. Safety glass windows go one step further than double glazing and are particularly tough. This means that they are harder for an intruder to break and also won't shatter in the event of an accident, protecting your children.

Combine Safety Glass Windows with Other Pilkington Products

Safety glass windows can be created in conjunction with other Pilkington products to ensure that you get the best value out of your windows. Pilkington Activ™ Self-Cleaning Glass is as innovative as you can get. A special coating breaks down organic dirt with the sunlight, leaving them loosened. This same coating then prevents the rain water from forming droplets and forces it to spread evenly across the glass, washing away the dirt. The window is then left streak free - without any help from harmful or expensive chemicals. This low maintenance glass is ideal in a busy family home and can be combined with safety glass for windows that work for you.

Pilkington also has a range of other products with useful functions that you could combine with your safety glass windows:

• Solar Control Glass
• Thermal Insulating Glass
• Noise Control Glass
• Decorative Glass
