SSG® DuraSafe-SGP is SSG® DuraSafe using SentryGlas® (SG) as the interlayer. In contrast with other interlayers, SG allows the development of a new line of laminated glass products because the interlayer is 100 times stiffer and five times stronger than PVB. It outshines traditional interlayers by having superior edge stability, allowing for frameless edges without worries over delamination. It also exhibits higher optical clarity, safety, security, ease of maintenance, and outstanding post-breakage performance. SSG® DuraSafe-SGP has been proven to have an exceptional adhesion to glass and metal through a 84-months weathering test, with no defects spotted. Hence it can be used to lessen metal structures and fittings for structural glass assemblies and to allow the use of thinner glass. It does not possess a yellowish look present in some interlayers and hence is often used with low iron and coloured glass.
Optical Clarity
SSG® DuraSafe-SGP exhibits higher clarity compared to laminated glass using other interlayers. It does not possess a yellowish look present in some interlayers. This is very important with low iron and coloured glass.
Mechanical Strength
SSG® DuraSafe-SGP is five times stronger than traditional laminated glass. This reduces the structural support needed in its use, and in turn leads to cost savings.
High-edge Stability
SSG® DuraSafe-SGP can be left exposed to the environment without detrimental effect. This has been proven through a weathering test of the exposed edge.
Lighter Load for Buildings
SentryGlas® has an exceptional adhesion to glass and metal, allowing SSG® DuraSafe-SGP to lessen metal structures and fittings for structural glass assemblies.
Safety
SentryGlas® is 100 times stiffer than the traditional interlayer. As such, it exhibits excellent post-breakage behaviour by holding the glass in place when broken, reducing the risk of fallout and injury.
