TEMPERED GLASS - THE DOS & DONT’S
Tempered glass may be classified as safety glass, and is thrice to five times durable than normal annealed glass but it's not altogether indestructible.
There has been recent news of tempered glass suddenly shattering, which can result in severe lacerations and bleeding.
While shocking when it happens, however, tempered glass is actually designed to shatter into many small fragmented pieces in the event of breakage.
This safety component helps diminish the risk of injury, since it doesn't break into large jagged shards like anneale glass does. Here's how to care for your glass furniture to keep it safe and last for years to come.
DOS
* Handle with care and be gentle.
* Avoid impacting the side or edges of the glass, as this is where it is most vulnerable.
* Clean it regularly. Spraying a mixture of ordinary dish soap and water will suffice, with a soft sponge, followed by a soft, non-abrasive cleaning cloth to buff it dry.
* Remove stubborn stains with a glass-cleaner and a damp cloth.
* Consider installing a film on glass windows or barriers at home that can hold broken glass together if it breaks.
