Stairs, landings and mezzanines are usually the darkest part of an office floor, and a run of solid balustrade is what makes them that way. Glass holds the same line without casting it into shade, which matters most in an atrium or a stairwell borrowing its light from somewhere else. Choose frameless for the cleanest run, crystal view for an uninterrupted sightline, or posts where the structure suits it better. Every panel is cut to your run rather than assembled from stock lengths.
Toughened glass (ESG) carries far greater mechanical resistance than ordinary glass, and if it does break, it breaks into small blunt pieces rather than shards. Laminated glass (VSG) is built from panels bonded together with an interlayer, so the sheet holds together instead of leaving the opening. In a building with people moving through it all day, that behaviour is the whole point.
The glass doesn’t have to be clear, either. We can print any design across it, either as a full print or a transparent one, or paint it in a flat colour. A transparent print does a second job worth knowing about: it marks the glass so nobody walks into it, and it can carry your own branding rather than a row of standard dots.
