Safety Features
Quartz’s impact products do more than merely maintain the structural integrity of your residence; they bring an additional layer of internal safety, fortifying your home against unforeseen events.
In the event of a storm or other incident that damages the glass, the robust laminated interlayer holds steadfast within the frame, effectively containing the shattered glass pieces. This design ensures that residents remain unaffected by external conditions, as the building’s outer envelope continues to provide a reliable barrier against rain and winds.
Enhanced Security Measures
Quartz’s advanced impact-resistant windows and doors are specifically engineered to fortify premises against unauthorized access.
They are carefully designed to strengthen weak points that could be exploited by intruders. The durable laminated glass makes forced entry considerably more difficult, acting as an effective deterrent against break-ins.
