Benefits

Post-breakage Safety

Higher load capability sustains safety after glass broken.
 

Superior Edge Stability

Enhanced laminated glass delamination resistance and superior performance.
 

Enhanced Unit Strength

Suitable for oversized glass beyond 3200mm span.
 

Enhanced Interlayer Strength

Enables thinner glass to achieve same wind load request, reduce weight and costs.
 

Excellent Compatibility

Combined with family Clear, Acoustic, Storm, UV and Vanceva Colors series to achieve limitless possibilities on design.
 

Quality PVB Characteristics

Anti-UV function, high cohesiveness, stunning clarity, noise proof, and suitable for all kinds of glass including float glass, patterned glass, solar coating glass and low-e glass. 

 

Testing

 

Salt Fog for Edge Blush & Delamination

Test glass were placed in 35 degree and exposed to salt fog. It shows higher performance in edge blush and less susceptible to delamination compared to normal PVB.

Sealant Compatibility

sealant compatability

Durability Test

Humidity test & UV radiation test

3mm annealed glass+0.76 Saflex Structural+3mm annealed glass, 300*300mm size, total 3 pieces.
Test glass put into a container and heated to 100 degree, then maintained for 16 hours.
