    FAQ

    Tempered glass is more robust than regular glass. It is made by heating or treating it with chemicals. Tempering puts pressure on the outside and tension on the inside.

    1. Labels and Markings: Tempered glass is usually marked “TEMPERED”.
    2. Edges and corners: The edges and corners of toughened glass are usually smooth.
    3. Optical effects: Wearing polarised sunglasses and looking at toughened glass will show rainbow-coloured patterns or stripes on the surface. This is because of how the glass is made.
    4. Breakage mode: If the glass breaks, tempered glass will break into small, blunt pieces that are not dangerous, while ordinary glass will break into large, sharp pieces.

    You can’t cut tempered glass. If you try to cut or drill toughened glass, it will shatter. Toughened glass must be cut and processed before it is toughened.
