The laminated glass produced by PKO Vidros complies with the ABNT NBR 14.697 standard. It is manufactured using a heat and pressure process that joins two or more sheets of glass to a PVB (polyvinyl butyral) film, which makes this product a safety glass, as there is a reduction in the risk of accidents. caused by breakage, due to its characteristic of keeping glass fragments stuck to the film.

Benefits of Laminated Glass

• Reduction of the risk of accidents caused by breakage, due to its characteristic of keeping glass fragments attached to the PVB;
• Increased property security, as by keeping the glass fragments attached to the PVB, the gaps are prevented from being breached;
• Blocks up to 99.6% of ultraviolet radiation, which is most responsible for the aging of furniture, curtains, floors, among others, in addition to being harmful to human skin;
• Wide variety of colors, a factor that depends on the combinations between the different types of glass and the different colors of the PVB film;
• Greater acoustic insulation (link with the “Acoustic” page of the comfort line) compared to common glass, which can be maximized with the use of acoustic PVB, helping to dampen the sound vibrations of the glass.

Laminated Glass with SentryGlas® Film

The glass can be laminated with SentryGlas® film, replacing PVB, enhancing the product's safety level, as this product is 100 times more rigid than common PVB. This also makes it possible, in many cases, to reduce the thickness of the glass, maintaining the same level of resistance of the piece.
