Introduction
Glazed floors offer a wide range of opportunities and advantages for architects, building owners, and occupants. Their load-bearing and slip resistant properties as as allow them to become walkable surfaces. Their transparency senables greater design freedom and creates the illusion of a larger space. With more natural light flowing in between floors, Galso ,well-being, and productivity are increased. Vetrotech’s fire-resistant and high-security glazing for glazed floors are the perfect solution for buildings that must achieve stringent safety performac without compromising on occupant comfort.
Performance
Vetrotech’s fire-resistant and high-security solutions for glass floors go one step further than conventional glass floor solutions by providing building occupants with added protection against fire, intrusion and manual attacks, gunfire, and explosions. Glass floors’ fire-resistant properties prevent the transfer and spread of fire, from one floor to another while maintaining structural integrity to support the load of escaping occupants. Depending on the required level of security, floors can also be equipped with high-security glass that prevents attempted break-ins and keeps people and property safe from gunfire and explosions. Our high-performing life-safety glazing materials are tested and certified in load-bearing systems according to European standards to go beyond glass’ conventional functionality to keep building occupants safe, no matter what.
