Resin Laminating

Resin lamination is an alternative technique for producing a laminated glass panel. Rather than sandwiching an interlayer between two glass panels, when using a resin laminated technique you mechanically fix the two glass elements together and then pour specialised liquid resin between the two panes.

This liquid resin is then cured, either by chemical reaction or on a UV bed, and the mechanical holdings are removed. You are left with a clear glass panel, which is classified as safety glass.

As with interlayer laminating, you can either resin laminate annealed glass to create a safety glass or use heat-soaked and toughened glass to strengthen a complete glass panel.

Laminate Uneven Glass Surfaces

Though interlayer lamination is more prevalent in architectural glazing due to its increased strength and protection against UV, resin lamination has its uses.

As the resin starts in a liquid form, it is also used to laminate glass with an uneven surface such as kiln formed or cast glass to create a decorative safety glass panel.
