High-performance safety and security glazing.

Available in 4.8mm and 6.8mm configurations. Laminated glass is a high-performance safety and security glazing solution, widely used across residential and commercial applications. It is manufactured by bonding two panes of glass together with a durable PVB (polyvinyl butyral) interlayer, creating a composite glass construction designed to remain bonded when broken. At Regency Glass, we offer laminated glass in 4.8mm and 6.8mm configurations, with a choice of Clear, Planitherm Total+ and Planitherm One options. This provides greater flexibility when specifying insulating glass units to meet required safety, security, thermal, and overall performance requirements.

How does laminated glass work?

Unlike standard float glass, laminated glass is designed to retain most of its integrity when broken. When an impact occurs, the glass may crack, but the fragments remain bonded to the PVB interlayer rather than falling away from the pane. This creates a characteristic spider-web crack pattern, similar to a vehicle windscreen, helping to reduce the risk of injury and maintain a barrier after impact.

Laminated glass can therefore provide:

  • Safety: Helps reduce the risk of injury from broken glass
  • Security: Provides resistance to impact and forced entry
  • Acoustic performance: can help reduce sound transmission when incorporated into suitable IGU configurations
  • UV protection: The PVB interlayer can help reduce the transmission of UV radiation, helping to protect furnishings and interiors from fading

4.8mm & 6.8mm Laminated Glass

A lightweight laminated glass option for greater flexibility in IGU specification. Our 4.8mm laminated glass provides a lighter alternative to thicker laminated glass constructions, while achieving the P2A safety and security classification. 4.8mm laminated glass provides a lighter alternative to thicker constructions and meets Secured by Design, PAS 24, and P2A safety and security standards, making it suitable for applications requiring enhanced impact resistance. The reduced weight can make processing, handling, transportation and installation more straightforward compared with heavier laminated alternatives. It can also help reduce the load placed on window systems, hinges and locking mechanisms.

4.8mm laminated glass is suitable for incorporation into both double-glazed units (DGUs) and triple-glazed units (TGUs), as well as Regency Triple®, and can enable larger cavity sizes in specific configurations, supporting the potential to achieve lower U-values where the overall IGU specification allows. In some configurations, 4.8mm laminated glass can provide higher light transmission than thicker laminated alternatives, helping to maximise natural light while retaining the benefits of laminated glazing.

Available in:

4.8mm Clear

A proven laminated glass construction for applications requiring a thicker laminated specification. 6.8mm laminated glass is a widely used specification for residential and commercial glazing applications, comprising two 3mm panes of glass and a 0.8mm PVB interlayer. 6.8mm laminated glass is suitable for incorporation into both double-glazed units (DGUs) and triple-glazed units (TGUs), as well as Regency Triple®.

Available in:

6.8mm Clear
A clear, laminated option that provides safety and security performance while maintaining excellent clarity.

6.8mm Planitherm Total+
Combines laminated safety and security performance with solar control properties.

6.8mm Planitherm One
Combines laminated safety and security performance with enhanced thermal insulation.

Both 4.8mm and 6.8mm laminated glass provide safety and security benefits, but the most appropriate specification will depend on the application and the overall IGU requirements.

4.8mm laminated glass offers a lightweight solution that provides greater flexibility in the design and handling of insulated glass units.

6.8mm laminated glass provides a thicker laminated construction for applications where this specification is required.

Both are available in clear, Planitherm Total+ and Planitherm One to enable a tailored specification to suit your project’s needs. For advice on the most suitable laminated glass configuration for your project, speak to the Regency Glass team, other laminated glass thicknesses are available on request.
