Glass Types and Specialty Glass

This section groups decorative, laminated, performance, and custom glass.

Architectural and Decorative Glass

These products alter the color, opacity, texture, or appearance of glass.

Opaci-Coat Spandrel

Opaci-Coat Spandrel creates opaque areas in a facade to conceal floor slabs, columns, insulation, wiring, or HVAC equipment. It is available in different colors.

  • Lead time*: 5 to 7 days.

Textured Shower Glass

PRL offers textured glass for showers and bathroom enclosures. The patterns obscure the view into the shower while allowing light to pass through.

  • Lead time*: 2 to 3 days. Confirm the lead time with PRL for tempered configurations.

Tinted & Reflective Glass

Tinted glass adds color and changes the amount of visible light that passes through the panel. Reflective glass creates more pronounced exterior reflections, although its appearance changes with interior and exterior lighting conditions. Both are available as laminated glass, tempered glass, or insulated glass units.

  • Lead time*: Laminated glass, 5 days; tempered glass, next day; insulated glass, 3 to 4 days.

Mirrors

PRL fabricates custom mirrors for bathrooms, gyms, hotels, retail stores, and offices. They are available in clear, bronze, or gray glass, with polished or beveled edges, cutouts for lighting, and multi-piece configurations.

  • Lead time*: 2 days.

Custom Sandblast

PRL sandblasts logos, images, or patterns onto glass panels. A design can combine different tones with carved areas at different depths.

  • Lead time*: 5 to 7 days.


Laminated and Performance Glass

Laminated glass bonds two or more pieces of glass with an interlayer. Depending on the composition, the interlayer holds the glass together after breakage, adds color, or contributes to sound control.

Max Sliders With Sound Control

Max Slider is available with Sound Control Glass for homes and businesses exposed to traffic noise. The glass interlayer helps reduce sound transmission through the enclosure.

  • Lead time*: 2 to 3 weeks.

Rainbow Color Laminated Glass

Rainbow Color Laminated Glass incorporates color within the glass. Its 12 standard colors can be combined to create additional colors. The appearance changes with the glass type and lighting conditions, so the project team should review a sample.

  • Lead time*: 5 days.

Windbreak With SentryGlas®

SentryGlas® can be used in glass windbreaks for terraces, rooftops, and areas exposed to wind and moisture. Its interlayer helps the glass remain bonded after breakage. PRL must review the panel dimensions and attachment conditions.

  • Lead time*: 1 to 2 weeks.

Handrail System With PVB Laminated Glass

PRL fabricates railing systems with PVB laminated glass for staircases, balconies, and terraces. The interlayer retains the fragments if the glass breaks. The glass thickness and attachment method are defined for each system.

  • Lead time*: 7 days.

Bullet-Resistant Glass With Switch-It Privacy

This product combines ballistic protection and switchable privacy. It is available with UL 752 ratings from Level 1 through Level 8 and NIJ 0108.01 Levels IIIA, III, and IV. The glass, frame, anchors, and joints must correspond to the required rating and project dimensions. Switch-It changes the glass from transparent to opaque when activated by a switch.

  • Lead time*: 10 days; 15 days with Switch-It Privacy.

Custom Glass Pieces

These pieces are fabricated for the dimensions and details of each surface.

Counter Top With White Lami

This white laminated glass countertop is used in kitchens, bathrooms, bars, and service counters. PRL fabricates each countertop to the required dimensions and shape, including any openings or cutouts needed for the space.

  • Lead time*: 5 to 7 days.

Custom Table Tops

PRL fabricates custom glass tops for dining tables, desks, conference tables, and bars. The glass can protect a piece of furniture or serve as the primary surface. The design determines the shape, thickness, corners, and edge finish.

  • Lead time*: 5 to 7 days.
