Why Choose 10 mm Over Other Thicknesses?

• Thinner than 12 mm or 15 mm → lighter and more cost-effective
• Stronger than 6 mm or 8 mm → suitable for structural and safety-critical areas
• The “sweet spot” for most domestic and commercial projects

Whether you need a single piece for a shower screen or hundreds of panels for a large development, 10 mm toughened glass delivers outstanding performance and value.
