Description

DESCRIPTION:

Since 1945, Duralex has been a pioneer in tempered glass technology, a process in which we are the industry leader. Our factory in La Chapelle-Saint-Mesmin was the first in the world to produce tempered glass tableware. Through constant investment and commitment to quality, Duralex has achieved a level of excellence that drives the brand s success around the world. Our company is indisputably recognised as the leader in tempered glass.

What makes Duralex glass so strong is the tempering process. It consists of rapid ventilation cooling of the entire glass product, which has been previously heated to a temperature of approximately 700 C. This treatment creates controlled stresses in the glass that improve most of its physical qualities: resistance to mechanical stress and thermal shock (sudden temperature change). This makes Duralex glass at least 2.5 times more resistant to mechanical stress than an annealed (standard) glass product. It is resistant to thermal shock of at least 130 C.
