Market Overview

Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that has the ability to hold its structure together even after it is being heavily impacted. In the event of breaking, the laminated glass has the ability to hold its structure together in its place by an interlayer mechanism of the filler material of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ethylene-vinlyacetate (EVA), or thermoplastic polyurethane between its two or more layers of glass. This interlayer keeps the glass together even in the event of a breaking event.
