ARMOURCLAD®
toughened enamelled safety glass
Armourclad® is a coloured enamelled, toughened glass suitable for structural and safety glazing. It can be used in conventional four-sided frames or flush glazed assemblies, and is ideal for frameless bolted and silicone-bonded structures.
Roller coating with a solid colour renders Armourclad opaque, making it an attractive alternative to conventional materials for interior and exterior cladding of buildings. It is easy to clean, repels dirt and has a smooth, silky surface.
The enamel coating is fired into the glass surface and is UV-stabilised to ensure resistance against the effects of sunlight. Colour-fastness is guaranteed for ten years.
Colours
Solar Bronze, Ford Blue, Solex, Solar Gray, Lava Bronze, Gunmetal, Black, White. Custom colours can be produced on request, depending on quantity.
Final colour selection must be based on an actual sample of Armourclad. A virtually unlimited colour spectrum is available on minimum order quantities of 400 m2 or more. If you do not find the colour you want within the standard range, please send us a sample of the required colour. We will match it and submit a return sample indicating the colour that can be achieved in Armourclad.
Six to eight weeks must be allowed for colour matching and sample approval. It is important to note that, while colour variation will be minimised as far as possible, colours can vary marginally within and between production batches.
Patterned glass
Armourclad can be produced using selected patterns in the DecorVue range.
Sizes
Other sizes and thicknesses are available. Specific requirements should be referred to SmartGlass. It is imperative that SmartGlass be consulted regarding the lead times for supply of product.

Drilling and edge working
Armourclad cannot be cut or worked after it has been toughened because, with the balanced stresses set up in the glass during the toughening process, any working is likely to cause breakage. All work of this nature must therefore be completed before the glass is toughened.
