Glasshape® offer a comprehensive portfolio of fully certified marine glass for a wide range of applications. The DuraShield Marine range includes laminated or monolithic marine glass, which can be an annealed laminate or toughened (tempered) glass. Applications include but are not limited to skylights, portholes, balustrades and windscreens. Our offer covers a wide range of both interior and exterior applications.
We also offer decorative glass solutions by combining our glass with a digital print (ceramic ink) as well as other decorative glass solutions. These can all be supplied as flat or curved glass options. Our manufacturing capabilities cover flat, curved as well as complex compound curves making us the one stop shop for your marine glass requirements.
To further eliminate risk, we offer a digital site measure service that utilizes the latest scanning hardware to produce electronic templates with unmatched accuracy, doing away with the need for physical templates that are cumbersome and time consuming to use. Using this service also allows easy replication of glass components should they be required in the future as we can keep a digital record of your glass requirements.
Our range of marine glass is certified to ISO Standards and validated by international accreditation with proven performance in builds from all over the world.
