SELECTIVE CHOICES™ GORILLA GLASS
Fully tempered glass is used in many applications because
of its safety characteristics. Safety comes from strength
and from a unique fracture pattern. Strength, which effectively
resists wind pressure and impact, provides safety in many
applications. When fully tempered glass breaks the glass fractures
into small, relatively harmless fragments. This phenomenon
called “dicing,” markedly reduces the likelihood of injury
to people as there are no jagged edges or sharp shards.
The inside pane of Gorilla Glass is tempered to give extra
protection from broken glass or objects from the outside,
and additional protection fro safety against impact or breakage
from the inside. While Gorilla Glass is not safety glass,
it provides additional protection when compared to regular
standard glass.
