Safety Feature of Laminated Glass
By adhering two or more layers of glass together, clear DuPont™ SentryGlas® interlayer helps glass remain in place if fractured. This helps the glass retain wind barrier and residual load-bearing capability even when broken.
SkyPark Glazing Detail
The strength and stiffness of DuPont™ SentryGlas® is captured on two sides for horizontally mounted panels, and with line support at the bottom for larger, vertical panels.
