From traditional float glass to cutting-edge smart glass options, we offer a comprehensive selection of industry-leading glass products to suit any project you have in Brisbane.

Majority of our glass is provided with 4mm clear float glass, as this is the most common glass type seen across Australia, however we offer a wide range of glass types and thicknesses for you to choose from.

Depending on where the glass is being installed and how large the window is, certain Australian Standards must be met when installing the glass. Our team can help you with this when it is needed, but we also explain it as best as we can below.

The windows that the glass types apply to are for our entire range of aluminium products:

Glass Types

We take pride in offering a diverse range of high-quality glass options to meet the unique needs and preferences of our valued clients. Selecting the right type of glass can help to exuberate the natural light that brightens up your home, or greatly improve the energy efficiency of your property as a whole. Depending on what it is you need, your glass selection can reduce UV trnasmission, lower power bills, improve security, and make your home quieter from the noisy outside world.

Each type of glass we supply and install is locally sourced to ensure exceptional performance, aesthetics, and durability. Here is an overview of our premium glass types:

Float Glass

Float glass is the foundation of most modern glass products and is the most popular choice across Brisbane households. Ideal for windows, mirrors, and glass doors, float glass offers excellent clarity and light transmission.

Laminated Safety Glass

Our laminated safety glass is a robust and secure option that consists of two or more layers of glass bonded together with a durable interlayer. This interlayer ensures that the glass remains intact even when shattered, minimising the risk of injury. We offer various thicknesses, including the 6.38mm Laminated Glass option for enhanced safety and security.

Obscured Glass

Obscured glass (or translucent laminate) provides privacy and adds a touch of elegance to interior spaces. This translucent laminate option allows light to pass through while obscuring the view from the outside. It is an excellent choice for partitions, doors, and windows where privacy is a priority.

Tinted Glass

Tinted glass offers both style and functionality by reducing glare and controlling heat penetration. We offer a variety of tones, including grey, green, and dark grey, to complement your architectural design and enhance energy efficiency.

Tempered Glass

Tempered glass (6mm toughened) is known for its exceptional strength and safety features. It undergoes a heating and rapid cooling process, making it several times stronger than regular glass. In case of breakage, it shatters into small, harmless fragments, reducing the risk of injury.

Insulated Glass

Our insulated glass units combine multiple glass panes with low emissivity (Low-E) coatings and gas fills to improve energy efficiency. They help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption while providing optimal light transmission.

Smart Glass

Smart glass, also known as switchable glass, offers the convenience of adjustable transparency. With just a flick of a switch or a tap on your smartphone, you can control the level of opacity, transforming your glass from transparent to translucent and vice versa.

Double Glazed Glass

Double glazed glass consists of two glass panes separated by a layer of air or gas. It provides excellent thermal insulation, reducing heat transfer and noise penetration. This energy-efficient solution helps maintain a comfortable environment and enhances acoustic performance.

Glass Thickness

The choice of glass thickness can significantly impact the performance and safety of your windows. Although we offer a wide range of thicknesses available for our glass, here are some of the most common types of glass thicknesses used amongst our windows:

Selecting the right glass

Choosing the right glass for your project is crucial to achieving the desired aesthetics, functionality, and energy efficiency. At JRC, we understand that each project is unique, and the selection process requires careful consideration. Here are some key factors to consider when selecting the perfect glass for your property:

Safety Standards of glass

Safety is our utmost priority when it comes to your glass. We take every measure to ensure that our glass products meet the highest industry standards, providing you with peace of mind and confidence in our offerings. Our commitment to safety is evident through our strict adherence to Australian Standards (AS2047) for Grade A Safety Glass.

Australian Standards (AS2047) outline the requirements for windows and external glazed doors in buildings. By complying with these rigorous standards, we ensure that our glass products possess the strength and durability necessary to withstand various environmental conditions and potential impacts. Grade A Safety Glass further enhances the security of your spaces by minimising the risk of breakage and injury.
