Flat Polished Edges:
The flat edge mirror is our most popular finish, consisting of sanding and polishing the glass edges to acquire a satiny smooth, glossy finish. This is the best way to highlight the thickness of the glass and this strategy provides for a very modern look to augment your living space.
Seamed Edge:
This choice is for safety as the edges are sanded down to remove ragged edges. Seamed edges are suited for framing due to their unfinished appearance. It is the most economical edge but itโs only recommended if the edges will be completely covered. For Glass Protector Tops, table tops, shelves, or anywhere the edge will be seen, only polished edges should be ordered.

Hydrofluoric acid must be applied on the glass to deliver a frosted look to its surface to produce Acid Etched Glass. Dependent on customer requirements, customized designs can be introduced to the glass in this acid-etching process and this can be accomplished on individual sheets of glass cut to size, be created on a portion of the glass or on large glass sheets.

Tempered or toughened glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal treatments to increase its strength as opposed to normal glass, which does not require this additional treatment. The manufacturing process places the outer surfaces under compression and the interior in a state of tension. Tempered glass is approximately four times stronger than โregularโ or annealed glass. Also known as safety glass, tempered glass fractures into small, relatively harmless pieces. As a result, tempered glass is used in those environments where human safety is an issue. Tempered glass is commonly used for specific applications such as shower enclosures, glass tops, glass railings and so on. Our heat-treated tempered glass meets the current North American standards of ANSI Z97.1-04, ASTM C1048 and CAN/CGSB-12.1-M90, which are currently in place for safety glass. Tempered glass cannot be cut, polished or drilled. All of the glass work must be performed prior to the tempering process.

1/32โโ Eased Corner Finish: for safety purposes, the tip at each corner is slightly polished to remove sharp protrusions. This technique is known as the blunt edge. โTips offโ or โpoints offโ are other terms used to describe this process.
The Radius Corner Finish: This encompasses cutting the corners of the glass into a radius shape (round shape), which is then polished to give a smoother, safer finish. Corner radius describes how rounded the corners are on a rectangular glass cut. The term โcorner radiusโ refers to the radius of the circle created by extending the corner arc to form a complete circle. Rounded corners are available up to a 4โโ radius.
