Safety Glazing and Insulating Glass Test Requirements Webinar
Insulating Glass
Measure the performance of your insulating glass products to environmental exposure, including extreme temperature variations, ultraviolet radiation, and changes in humidity. Our state-of-the-art accelerated weathering and high humidity chambers will provide you with the highest level of accuracy when it comes to seal durability, effects of weathering, and volatile fogging.
Safety Glazing
Evaluate your safety glazing material to ensure it will reduce or eliminate serious injury or death in the event it is broken by human contact. From testing tempered glass for breakage or fragmentation size to laminated or organic-coated glass for penetration and film or interlayer degradation, our environmental exposure equipment will simulate various environmental conditions to help determine if the safety glazing materials can successfully retain their safety and aesthetic characteristics after extended exposure to weathering conditions. We are proud offer an array of both destructive and non-destructive evaluation options.
