Bent Insulated glass

Facade

Also known as: bent double glazing, bent insulated glass, curved double glazing, glass bending, curved laminated glass, curved tempered glass, curved laminted tempered glass, curved heat-strengthened glass, curved laminated heat-strengthened glass.

Similar to the flat insulation glass, curved insulation glass can also be manufactured. The insulation function is reached because two curved panels with a hollow filled with air are assembled by means of a frame.
This "built-in" layer of air has an insulating function. Nowadays, this effect is reinforced by the fact that people do not merely use curved glass that is covered in a special layer, which poorly reflects or conducts the heat, but also fills the intermediate space with special gasses that do not let in much heat.

Curved glass links freedom in architectural design to the advantages and qualities of glass products. Curving the glass concerns a processing in which a flat glass panel is heated in a controlled way. Gravity forces the glass to curves and assume the shape of the underlying mold. Curved glass is often used as roof glazing in light domes, porches and shopping galleries, to round the corners of curtain walls or façades corners, as part of furniture, staircases, curved automated doors or shower screens.
