Product Description

Clear toughened glass is a strong multi-purpose glass. Ideal for glass shelves, shower screens, and balustrades. Available in thicknesses from 4mm up to 12mm.

Sometimes referred to as tempered glass, made by reinforcing float glass through a heating and cooling process, toughened glass becomes several times stronger – making it the go-to option for applications that require the use of safety glass.

Its increased resistance to heat, corrosion, and impacts allows toughened glass to withstand a range of conditions when installed both indoors and outdoors. If it does happen to break from a significant impact, it will shatter into granular blunt pieces rather than the sharp-edged shards you might expect from a large piece of glass.

The reduced risk of injury or damage, combined with the appealing simple aesthetics of clear toughened glass, make this material popular for many uses in residential, public, and commercial settings alike. You can utilise toughened glass cut to size in windows and doors, balustrades and glass partitions, screens and shelves, glass table tops, and more!

What are the benefits of using toughened glass?

With so many reliable qualities, suitable for countless applications, the benefits of toughened glass are practically endless. The primary advantage, of course, is its superior strength and durability compared to standard non-toughened glass.

However, there are plenty of other advantages that come with clear toughened glass, too – including its aesthetic appeal. It provides strong and safe barriers wherever they’re needed while creating a sleek and impressive modern look.

They also let light flow through them and won’t obstruct views, making them much more uplifting as a design feature than alternative opaque materials – and their transparency and minimalist style makes them a good fit for any interior or exterior design.

Another key benefit that makes toughened glass such a convenient option is its extremely low-maintenance nature. You don’t really have to do anything to keep it in good condition – just wipe it clean with basic soapy water and a cloth if it gets dirty.

Can you cut toughened glass to a custom size?

While we can manufacture made-to-measure toughened glass to order in your desired dimensions, it’s important to make the distinction that the glass must be cut to size before it goes through the tempering process. It cannot be cut or amended once this has happened, as the new internal stresses will become imbalanced and the integrity of the weakened glass will be at risk.

This means that you must be very careful to check you have the right measurements and submit them correctly when placing your order, as the Express Toughening team cannot make any changes after the processing is underway. The same applies if you want specific cut-outs, drilled holes, or corner finishes, which must be completed first.

We are happy to help customers looking for toughened glass cut to bespoke measurements outside the standard range in our product builder, but it’s essential that you make sure to let us know exactly what you want us to do from the start, as this will also affect your quote. If you have any questions, you can always contact us.

Where can toughened glass be installed?

As simple as they are in design, sheets of toughened glass are incredibly versatile, so you can use them in pretty much any setting and application that would benefit from glass that looks as beautiful as standard clear glass, but has been reinforced for safety.

For example, you could order custom toughened glass panels to use in a glass balustrade system for a staircase, balcony, mezzanine, or terrace – glass is an especially popular choice for a modern Juliet balcony these days.

Alternatively, pieces of toughened glass can be used to create bath screens or glass shower screens to keep splashes at bay in bathrooms, or in kitchens as splashbacks or worktop coverings to help walls and counters endure the daily rigours of the kitchen.

Another common use of this toughened material is for glass table tops, whether as part of the table itself or as a protective topper – and these can also be applied to all manner of desks and sideboards, chests of drawers and dressers, and other furniture.

There are so many ways to use toughened glass that we benefit from every day, from doors and windows to partitions and walls, but there are more subtle contemporary uses, too – like glass hearths in living rooms, glass wall art in all kinds of establishments, and even glass whiteboards and calendars in offices.

Whatever you might need made-to-measure toughened glass for, we’re confident we can help you at Express Toughening!

What Our Customers Say

Andrew Cooke

Superb customer service from the Express Toughening team – when I made a mistake on my order online, they dealt with the issue quickly organising partial refund immediately. My order arrived quickly and their courier messaged me before delivery to check I was in. Quality product at the best price I found online.

Kiron Kular

A massive Thankyou to Helen from Express Toughening for being so patient, co-operative and helpful with my orders. She resolved a re-make without any fuss and in an extremely timely manner. If you want glass – go to Express Toughening and ask for Helen!

Andy Beviere

Extremely easy company to deal with, glass ordered weeks ago and asked for a specific delivery date due to glass testing and no one being onsite. Delivered on time and when asked for other types glass stated they couldn’t help but recommended an equally helpful company!!

Wouldn’t hesitate to use again.

Brian White

I’ve used Express Toughening twice now and have been very impressed with the glass they have supplied and also the helpfulness of the staff. The first job was a couple of years ago when they supplied me with a 6mm satin frosted toughened glass door for our shower room. From my measurements they supplied a fabulous door which had the hinge and lock holes cut out and also took into account the out of square measurement of the door frame. It fitted a treat and is stunning to look at.

More recently (late last year) they supplied me with painted toughened glass splash backs (7 items altogether in 6mm glass with the biggest being 2.1 metres long), all cut to my sizes and with numerous switch and socket cut-outs. My local glass supplier said they could not cut out the close together sockets and switches, but Express did and got it spot on!

As with the glass door, the splash backs were delivered to me by Expresses’ own transport and without any problems and quality issues.

After the scary bit of fitting them all the result is faultless and stunning. Thanks go to Alex who helped me with the ordering process and technical aspects of glass splash backs.

David Convery

4mm toughened glass for greenhouse. Although slightly dubious about ordering from a company I’ve never heard of and not local (300mile away) I’m so glad I took the plunge. A great customer service from Helen and the team from start to finish, clearly there was nothing for me to worry about.

Their website is easy to use and made ordering online a doddle and for those shapes, they don’t have on their website a quick email and rough diagram sorted any issues there. All glass arrived on time well packed and with no breakages.

It’s a company I wouldn’t hesitate to use again and I’d definitely recommend it to others who need quality glass cut to size.

Tony Fields

Excellent product.
Exactly what it says on the tin.
Brilliant, friendly service from Helen.
Definitely recommended.
(And we’re on the Scottish border)

Tony Owen

Fantastic service, fantastic prices and fantastic products – I could not recommend Express Toughening highly enough – I got an immediate response to my request for a quotation, and Helen was so helpful in answering my questions. Order placement was easy and everything arrived exactly on time and as promised. I won’t look anywhere else for my next order – great prices (way cheaper than other quotes) and great service!

Thank you!

Sam Richardson

Ridwan Nuruz provided exceptional, professional service from design right through to collection. A simple ikea sideboard now looks really classy and the top is super protected with toughened glass. So happy!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant service. Spoke to Sean on a Thursday at 16:50 and had a quote back and order placed the same evening. Some panes were cracked when delivered but they were immediately remade and sent out. Good price and the service is miles ahead of other glass suppliers I've previously used.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Service Thanks to Ghazal! I recently ordered a shower door and panel from Glass Toughening and had an outstanding experience, largely thanks to Ghazal Mubaied. From the very beginning, Ghazal was incredibly professional, responsive, and helpful, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Her excellent communication and willingness to assist truly made a difference. While there was a slight delay in delivery, Ghazal’s proactive updates and dedication to ensuring customer satisfaction made it absolutely fine. Her professionalism and kindness turned what could have been a minor inconvenience into a non-issue. I highly recommend this company, also the prices are really good, especially if you have the pleasure of placing an order, ask for Ghazal. Their service quality is great, and having such a supportive team member like her makes all the difference. Thank you!

We had a complicated order and they were brilliant. The bespoke screen was half the price of other services out there and it was delivered quickly, in perfect condition.  Thank you Ghazal!
