  • Are HenryGlass doors safe objects to have in the house?

    Since 1998, HenryGlass has designed and manufactured its products fulfilling the quality management system according to UNI-EN ISO 9001:2008 standards, which provide constant monitoring of production processes in all their phases. All glass products HenryGlass are safe, that is thermally tempered according to the UNI EN 12150-2 standard. Tempered glass has much higher impact resistance (7 times) than regular glass with the same thickness, and also, for safety reasons, is compliant with the UNI EN 12600 standard, since, if broken, it shatters into tiny harmless pieces. To guarantee the maximum safety, it is possible to request a tempered glass, also stratified-tempered.
