Home Appliance Use Toughened Tempered Glass For Fridge Shelf Replacement
Description of toughened tempered glass:
Toughened tempered glass is often used in applications where using
standard glass could pose a potential danger. Toughened tempered
glass is stronger than standard glass and does not shatter into
large shards when broken. This is important, because small shards
can greatly minimize potential danger in the case of a break.
Feihong set a standard of the fragment state in 50*50mm to judge if
it’s qualified toughened tempered glass based on global Electrolux
oven glass Standard, GE standard, BSH Standard, British BS3193
Standard, etc. Manufactured through a process of extreme heating
and rapid cooling, toughened tempered glass is much harder than
normal glass.
In the case that tempered glass does break, it shatters into small
pebbles that are void of dangerous, sharp edges. As tempered glass
is considered to be much safer than normal glass, you may often
here it referred to as safety glass or toughened glass. Tempered
glass has a wide variety of uses that you’ll find just about
everywhere. In fact, the shelves in your refrigerator or the door
for oven door, even some refrigerator door are examples of tempered
glass.

Process of toughened tempered glass:
Tempered glass is a type of glass with even compressive stress on the surface which is made by heating float glass to nearly softening point and then cooling it down rapidly by air. During the instant cooling process, the exterior of glass is solidified due to rapid cooling while the interior of the glass is cooled down relatively slowly. The process will bring the glass surface compressive stress and the interior tensile stress which can improve the mechanical strength of glass by germination and result in good thermal stability.
Advantages of toughened tempered glass:
1) Impact resistance: the impact strength of tempered glass with
the same thickness is 3-5 times of that of ordinary glass, and the
bending strength is 3-5 times of that of ordinary glass. We often
use, store and clean dishes in the kitchen. It's hard to avoid
rubbing kitchen appliances. The use of toughened glass with high
impact resistance can enhance the durability of kitchen appliances.
2) Good safety: the raw materials of tempered glass generally
contain less impurities, and the fine control in the melting
process of raw materials makes the ultra white glass have more
uniform composition than ordinary glass, and its internal
impurities are less, thus greatly reducing the possibility of self
explosion after tempering. When the toughened glass is damaged by
external force, the fragments will become small particles with
obtuse angle similar to honeycomb, which is not easy to cause
serious injury to human body. Even if the environment in the
kitchen is bad, the toughened glass with stable properties will not
cause accidents.
Quality Inspection process
1, When the first 100 pieces of finished products are packed, the
quality inspector shall inspect them at the inspection point of
finished products.
2, The product will be inspected two times casually every shift.
3, Before the product is packaged or after the finished product is
repaired, the quality inspector shall inspect it at the finished
product inspection point.
4, After the product is packaged, the quality inspector will
inspect it at the finished product inspection point.
5, If the finished product is stored for more than one month or for
other special reasons, the warehouse administrator shall inform the
quality inspector on duty to inspect it at the delivery site
(visual inspection according to the standard and packaging scheme
is in conformity).

1) Impact resistance: the impact strength of tempered glass with

rubbing kitchen appliances. The use of toughened glass with high
impact resistance can enhance the durability of kitchen appliances.
2) Good permeability: tempered glass generally has more than 91%
visible light transmittance, with crystal like quality. Modern home
decoration pays more and more attention to the sense of design. The
kitchen appliances made of toughened glass can improve the overall
aesthetic feeling of the kitchen.
3) Good safety: the raw materials of tempered glass generally
contain less impurities, and the fine control in the melting

FAQ
Q: What's the cut hole effect?
A: It depends on different thickness and for thick glass; we
usually use water jet + CNC.
For thin glass, we use CNC for cut hole to make sure no breakage chips exist from hole edge.
Q: Is irregular shape glass available?
A: No problem because we will use shape cutting machine + CNC to
make sure about the quality.
Q: How's the silk print effect?
A: Feihong received lots of praise in silk print quality base on
import paints + auto silk print machine + dust free room.
Available in high temperature silk print(The paint melt into glass)
and low temperature paint(Pass adhesion test).
Q: What's the edge treatment could meet?
A: We could make direct cut(cut chips, cheapest), fine grinded(CNC)
and polish edges base on your need.
The chamfer / radius could be set.
