Impact Glass Manufacturers You Can Trust: Protecting Florida Homes & Businesses with EXPRESS IMPACT GLASS

Where you live and work in Florida, dealing with tropical storms and hurricanes is not only an issue during the season, but an all-year affair. As residents and business owners are certainly aware, wind in excess, and flying debris can damage catastrophically in a few seconds.

That is why the best investment you can make for your property is to install impact-resistant glass all over your property. In EXPRESS IMPACT GLASS we don’t only build glass; we build peace of mind.

What Is Impact-Resistant Glass?

Let’s start with the basics. Impact Resistant Glass or hurricane glass or storm glass is designed especially to stand up to violent wind forces and airborne debris. It is a composite material that contains two or more sheets/layers of glass placed together by an interlayer, usually made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or SentryGlas. This internal film holds the glass together even when it is broken.

Therefore, when a certain object hits your window or door, the window/door glass may not crack and explode into dangerous shards. Rather, it remains attached to the interlayer and ensures the barrier is well-protected and the probability of injury or damage to property is minimized.
