Key products include:
• SGG STADIP SILENCE
SGG STADIP SILENCE combines two sheets of clear glass bonded together with a totally transparent plastic interlayer. The interlayer absorbs sound and reduces the level transmitted through the glass helping to keep both unwanted noise out, or to keep noise in.

• SGG SECURIT
SGG SECURIT is a toughened safety glass. It has undergone a special heat treatment to increase its strength and resistance to impact. In fact it is approximately five times more resistant than normal glass. As an example a piece of 8mm toughened glass will be able to withstand a steel ball weighing 500g dropped from a height of 2 metres.

Internal glass doors
Glass doors can stream or filter light from room to room to create a bright or softly lit interior. Choose either a classic or contemporary design to blend in with the rest of your interior style. Additionally, decorative patterns on the glass can create varying degrees of vision control to ensure privacy.
Key products include:
• SGG STADIP SILENCE
SGG STADIP SILENCE combines two sheets of clear glass bonded together with a totally transparent plastic interlayer. The interlayer absorbs sound and reduces the level transmitted through the glass helping to keep both unwanted noise out, or to keep noise in.
• SGG PYROSWISS
The original clear fire resisting safety glass, combining 30 minutes (E30) fire resistance with safety glass characteristics and flexible, multi-functional usage.
SGG PYROSWISS allows almost the same versatility as conventional architectural glass, with high impact mechanical strength and tempered glass break-safe characteristics tested to Class A, BS 6206:1981.
In the event of fire, SGG PYROSWISS provides an effective barrier against the passage of smoke, flames and hot toxic gases. By remaining transparent and fully intact SGG PYROSWISS allows persons making their escape and rescue services to be fully aware of any impending danger.
Rapid access can be achieved safely, to facilitate hose access, smoke evacuation and rescue efforts. A sharp blow from an axe will safely evacuate the opening, leaving behind harmless fragments of glass.
