Laminated is a type of safety glass which holds together when shattered.

Laminated is a type of safety glass which holds together when shattered. In the event of breaking, the glass is held in place by an interlayer, such as EVA(Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer), between the layers of glass. The interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded even when broken, and its high strength prevents the glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces, which produces a characteristic “spider web” cracking pattern when the impact is not enough to completely pierce the glass. It is often used in applications such as building facades, shop front windows, security screens, walk on floors, overhead canopies, domes etc.
