Why Is Tempered Glass Cost So High

 

 

The main reasons for the higher cost of tempered glass include the following aspects‌: 

 

Increasing production costs‌ of tempered glass sheets:

The production process of tempered glass requires multiple processes, including raw material procurement, cutting into custom size, grinding, heat treatment, etc. As raw material prices rise, labor costs increase, and equipment maintenance costs increase, production costs continue to rise, directly leading to an increase in the price of tempered glass‌ products.

 

Product quality improvement‌:

High-quality tempered glass has higher impact resistance, heat resistance and cold resistance, and can better protect people's lives and property. These high-quality features make tempered glass more valuable in the market, thus driving up its price

 

Market demand growth‌:

With people's increasing awareness of safety and the rapid development of the construction industry, the market demand for tempered glass continues to grow. Especially in the fields of high-rise buildings, automobile manufacturing, and home and kitchen appliances, electronics, furniture manufacturing, tempered glass is increasingly used. The growth of market demand has tightened the relationship between supply and demand, thereby driving up prices.

 

Processing is difficult‌:

Tempered glass is difficult to process and requires complex processes such as high-temperature treatment and rapid cooling. These processes increase production costs and time, resulting in higher prices.

Raw material cost‌:

The main raw material of tempered glass is glass, and its cost depends on factors such as the thickness, width and quality of the glass. Thicker glass requires more raw materials and processing costs during production, and therefore is more expensive

 

In conclusion, the purchasing cost of tempered glass products is relatively higher than regular glass sheet products. while that higher price didn't make purchasers ignore the excellent and unique features of tempered glass, like its safety, high strength, durability, longevity, and also with a smooth surface, tempered glass products are easy to clean and maintain. because of those special characteristics of tempered glass, we can find tempered glass products are applied almost everywhere in our life, like our appliances, furniture, even those electronics we take.
