Where Curved Design Meets Structural Strength
The production of curved tempered glass, unlike flat tempering, requires the glass to emerge from the furnace while maintaining its curved shape. Akcam, using special molding technology and precise heating/cooling profiles, minimizes optical distortions at the bending point. This ensures a clear and smooth image even on the curved surface of the glass.
The curved structure of glass provides a natural structural resistance compared to flat glass. This resistance is further enhanced by tempering. Upon breakage, the glass shatters along its curved surface, breaking into small, granular particles that eliminate the risk of injury. This ensures the highest level of safety, even with complex geometries.
It allows architects to break free from the limitations of standard flat glass. From revolving door systems to glass elevators and elegant shop windows, Curved Tempered Glass significantly enhances the aesthetic value of buildings by giving them a dynamic, organic, and futuristic look.
