figure out what kind of glass is perfect for advertising lighting boxes? considering from material strength and purchasing cost.
Tempered glass, also known as toughened glass, is a specially treated glass designed to withstand higher levels of stress and impact compared to standard glass. The tempering process involves heating the ordinary float glass to high temperatures and then rapidly cooling it. This thermal tempering alters the internal structure of the glass, enhancing its strength and making it a preferred choice for various applications in both residential and commercial settings.
The process of tempering glass is a meticulous one, transforming ordinary glass into a highly durable material. To create toughened glass, raw glass sheets are first heated to a temperature range of approximately 600°C to 700°C (about 1112°F to 1292°F). After being subjected to this heat, the glass is quickly cooled using a process known as quenching. This rapid cooling creates a difference in temperature throughout the glass, resulting in high compressive stresses on its surface while maintaining tensile stress within. The resulting tension gives toughened glass its remarkable resistance to breaking.
Usually 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm tempered glass sheet is suitable for working as the protective glass cover in advertising lighting boxes, because that 2-3mm thick tempered can offer enough strength to work as the protective glass cover and also their purchasing cost will be lower, or we can say affordable. if you buy tempered glass sheets with thick over 3mm to work as the outside protective glass cover in ads lighting boxes, definitely the thicker tempered glass will be stronger, while their purchasing cost will also be higher, compared with their strength and purchasing cost at the same time, we recommend that 2-3mm thick tempered glass sheet is a perfect option to work as the protective glass cover for advertising lighting box, or elevator advertising billboard, or just general display lighting boxes.
The 2mm thick tempered glass is sufficiently strong to work as the protective cover glass for advertising display light box.
Tempered glass is a type of high-strength glass. Its production process is to heat flat float glass above the softening point and then cool it rapidly to form strong compressive stress on the surface while maintaining tension inside, thereby improving strength and toughness. Under normal circumstances, the minimum thickness of tempered glass is about 2 mm. Tempered glass of this thickness-2mm has sufficient strength and toughness to withstand wind pressure, rain, ice and snow and other natural disasters.
In addition, when tempered glass breaks, the glass flakes will turn into tiny particles, preventing sharp and dangerous fragments from harming the human body, further improving safety.
In practical applications, 2 mm thick tempered glass is often used in situations that do not require high strength, such as picture frame glass, display cabinet glass, advertising board cover glass, elevator ads billboard glass, LED display light box and small furniture glass.
At a thickness of 2mm, our tempered glass strikes the perfect balance between strength and elegance. This key feature ensures that the tempered glass protector for ads light box is robust enough to withstand everyday handling and the rigors of changing displays. Tempered glass is approximately five to six times stronger than standard glass of the same thickness, which means that it can endure impacts better while reducing the likelihood of cracking or shattering. Its inherent strength makes it an ideal choice for advertising LED light display boxes or advertising players that may experience weight or pressure from mounted displays.
Safety is paramount in any advertising display application, and our 2mm thick tempered glass protective glass cover has been engineered with this in mind. In the unlikely event of breakage, tempered glass shatters into small, blunt fragments that are significantly less likely to cause injury compared to traditional glass. This safety feature is crucial for environments where displays are regularly interacted with, giving you peace of mind whether you’re showcasing in a retail space, gallery, or public venue.
One of the standout features of our tempered glass is its superior optical clarity. This high level of transparency allows the vibrant colors and intricate details of your displays to shine through, ensuring that your images or posters are presented without distortion. The tempered glass is designed to maximize light transmission, which is especially important in light box applications. With minimal reflection and glare, your content will emanate brilliance and attract attention, elevating your marketing or artistic endeavors.
Our 2mm tempered glass can easily be customized to fit a variety of advertising LED light box sizes and shapes. This versatility makes it a go-to choice for anyone who requires a reliable protective glass solution but may have different requirements based on their display setup. The tempered glass edges are finely polished to ensure maximum safety and aesthetic appeal, providing a professional finish that complements any design or branding.
Maintaining your display boxes has never been easier with our tempered glass. The tempered glass surface is resistant to scratches, stains, and both dust and fingerprints, meaning that your display light box will continue to look pristine with minimal effort. For routine cleaning, a simple solution of soap and water or gentle glass cleaners will suffice—no harsh chemicals are necessary, helping to extend the life of your display and keeping your content looking fresh and vibrant.
In today’s eco-conscious world, our 2mm tempered glass represents a responsible choice. It is fully recyclable and composed of natural materials, making it an environmentally friendly option compared to plastic alternatives. By choosing our tempered glass for your advertising display light boxes, you are not only enhancing your displays but also contributing to sustainable practices.
