Tempered glass care

Today, many interior and architecture items are made of tempered glass. Stairs, office partitions, shower enclosures - all this and much more are an integral part of our living space, and therefore requires constant care. There is no particular difficulty to care for tempered glassware, but some simple rules still need to be respected.
Use only special glass and mirror cleansers
Products from tempered glass are getting polluted, as well as other interior items, therefore require regular cleaning. Specialists recommend to clean glass stairs with soap solutions and to use special detergents for glass and mirrors.

By following the simple care rules listed below, you will extend the life of your tempered glass products and keep them impeccable over the years.

Caution: rust, a lime plaque! If you find difficult contamination (rust, lime plaque on the shower cubicle) on your tempered glass product, you cannot avoid using aggressive detergents. But, if your product is painted, and you are not sure of the reliability of the color, be careful - make sure that this plaque does not spoil the decor.
Abrasive products are canceled
Under no circumstances should you use abrasive cleaning products for tempered glass products - solid particles of powder and cleaning paste will leave scratches and abrasions on the surface, and the appearance of the product will be damaged.
Use soft sponges
The best "tools" for washing products made from tempered glass is a soft sponge or a special microfiber cloth. Never use a hard sponge to clean the glass surface.

Wipe until dry!
Almost all tempered glass products are mounted with the use of metal fittings and profiles made of steel or aluminum. As you know, in long-term contact with water, even stainless steel will rust. Therefore, when assembling, do not allow the moisture to enter the joints between the metal and glass - in the places of fastening the fittings.

Giovani Glass will offer you a perfect glass but then it will be your responsibility to keep immaculate.

Glass tempering technology

Glass tempering technology To make ordinary glass more resistant to shock loads, temperature changes, and also safer in the event of destruction, special high-temperature treatment is applied to it, followed by cooling - quenching. As a result of quenching, constant stresses remain in the glass material, due to which glass loses its uniformity and acquires new properties. The specific properties of tempered glass Hardened glass can not be drilled or cut - it will lead to its destruction due to the presence of internal stresses. Due to the use of glass hardening technology, it becomes 5-10 times stronger to shock loads and much more resistant to destruction due to temperature differences than ordinary glass. If tempered glass is broken, it does not carry a danger of injury to a person, since its fragments are small, with blunt edges, which cannot be cut. If you break the usual glass, formed large fragments with sharp edges, very traumatic. Glass tempering technology Use ...

What Is Sandblasting?

Sandblasting is a technology of glass processing with a high-pressure air-sand spray, formed as a result of mixing compressed air and sand (abrasive). Today sandblasting is one of the most effective ways to clean any surface. The sandblasting equipment allows to remove corrosion products, scum and carbon, as well as old colorful coatings from metal, glass, concrete, wooden and other surfaces. Glass and mirrors matting is the main operation in glassware decorating. Matting is a process of processing a glass surface or a mirror by sandblasting to obtain a matte finish. Matting can be classified into the following types depending upon complexity: •   solid matting - the whole surface becomes matte; • simple matting - the application of simple geometric shapes onto the mirror: lines, circles, squares, diamonds, etc. Sandblasting allows you to get an opaque matte surface for white glass. You can handle all the surface or only individual fragments. Sandblasting helps create ...

Scopes of tempered glass

Due to the properties of the material, tempered glass sheets are characterized by increased resistance to attempts to damage them. If you try to break the glass, the last hardening, you can find that it breaks into fragments with blunt edges, which can not injure the skin. This is the safety of the material. tempered glass  The hardening process is carried out on special equipment by means of strong heating of the glass, which, when it reaches a certain temperature, is subjected to instant cooling, which gives the desired effect. Moving from a moving mass to a solid, the glass structure is accompanied by a change in its physical parameters, since the bonds of the molecular level in it become stronger. With the help of this technology, the formation of compression stress points in the glass structure is realized, due to which glass becomes mechanically more durable and capable of withstanding significant temperatures without damage, as well as sudden temperature fluctuations...
