Tempering - strengthened glass for your projects.

Tempered glass offers the perfect solution for your general and safety glazing projects such as sliding doors, building entrances, and interior partitions where superior strength and safety are concerns. That's because tempered glass has double to triple the resistance to thermal shock, as does a piece of untempered glass.

The process of creating tempered glass consists of two steps. First, the glass is heated to extreme temperatures, and then it is immediately cooled. This process creates a piece of quality glass that shatters into small pieces upon impact.

NWI has two furnaces which are capable of handling glass which measures up to 84" x 174". In addition, our furnaces are supported by fabrication equipment for handling holes, notches, cutouts and edgework.
