Tempered glass — strength, clarity and safety
Our wooden greenhouses are fitted with 4 mm tempered safety glass, chosen for its exceptional balance of strength, transparency and reliability. Tempered glass, also known as toughened glass, is produced through a controlled thermal process that significantly increases its mechanical strength compared to ordinary glass. The result is a material that not only enhances the beauty of your greenhouse but also ensures long-lasting performance and safety.
Exceptional Strength
Tempered glass is up to five times stronger than standard float glass. It withstands wind loads, temperature variations and minor impacts far better, making it ideal for outdoor structures exposed to changing weather conditions. The 4 mm thickness offers a perfect combination of light weight and rigidity, ensuring structural stability without unnecessary mass.
Safety and peace of mind
One of the key advantages of tempered glass is its safety performance. In the unlikely event of breakage, it shatters into small, blunt-edged fragments rather than sharp, jagged shards. This minimizes the risk of injury, making it a safe and family-friendly choice for gardens and home environments.
Timeless clarity
Unlike polycarbonate or acrylic alternatives, tempered glass maintains its optical clarity for decades. It does not discolor, scratch easily or lose transparency under UV exposure. This ensures that your plants receive maximum natural light, while your greenhouse retains its elegant appearance year after year.
Built for the elements
Tempered glass performs excellently in both heat and cold. It resists thermal stress, meaning it will not warp or crack with sudden temperature changes — a vital property in climates where seasons shift dramatically. Combined with our precisely engineered wooden frames, the glass panels provide a refined architectural finish.
