GLASS&SEALEDUNITS EXCEEDING EXPECTATIOINS ONCE AGAIN » » THERE IS NO STOPPING TUFFX Processed Glass when it comes to supplying glass for stunning designs and creations. They are always surprising cilents when jobs are installed by how striking the glass is. Most recently, TuffX’s processed department secured a job for a regular installer in North Wales when they requested glass for the outside of a beach front holiday home in Pwllheli. The homeowners wanted to differentiate their home from thier neighbours and give it a modern finish. TuffX suggested to the cilents that they purchase a total of 135m2 of Toughened- Laminated glass. The cilents opted for 45m² of 15mm Toughened-Laminated glass for the staircase and 90m² of 21.5mm Toughened- Laminated for the surrounding balcony. The homeowner was very happy with the finished product, stating, “Our holiday home is just how we pictured it. We can’t thank both our installers and TuffX enough for everything; it really gives our home the finishing touch we desired.” TuffX manufactures its toughened laminated glass in-house on state-of-the- art machinery to meet all current industry standards. It can manufacture the glass from 4mm to 19mm and up to a maximum size of 4000mm x 2200mm.
