A lamination window is a type of window that features laminated glass, typically created by sandwiching layers of glass with a transparent interlayer, often made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA).
Lamination enhances window safety by preventing the glass from shattering upon impact. In the event of breakage, the interlayer holds the glass fragments together, reducing the risk of injury.
Lamination windows offer improved safety, enhanced sound insulation, resistance to forced entry, protection against UV radiation, and the ability to reduce noise from the external environment.
Yes, lamination windows are suitable for both residential and commercial applications. They provide a combination of safety, security, and other practical benefits.
The lamination process involves layering sheets of glass with an interlayer material and subjecting the assembly to heat and pressure. This process creates a strong bond between the layers.
While the primary purpose of lamination is safety and security, lamination windows can contribute to energy efficiency by providing insulation and reducing heat transfer.
Yes, lamination windows have sound insulation properties, helping to minimize noise from the external environment and creating a quieter indoor space.
