A Glimpse into Glass

modern walk-in wardrobe designed with schmalenbach cabinetry with glass fronts

At eggersmann, we continue our efforts to utilize sustainable materials in unique ways. Our use of glass is no exception. Our designers and craftsmen collaborate to seamlessly meld glass with aluminum, wood, and composite materials to create novel and original beauty, while also prioritizing both innovation and safety. All of our glass is safety glass, ensuring durability and protection without compromising on elegance. Whether used in doors, shelving, or cabinetry, our safety glass undergoes rigorous testing to meet the highest standards, offering both style and security to our clients.

The advent of glass-making is believed to date back to 3500BC. The naturally occurring compound of silicone dioxide is fused with temperatures over 3000° Fahrenheit to achieve the non-porous smooth surface.  Glass is neither a solid or liquid, but rather remains between the two states and is called an amorphous solid. Ever noticed old glass windows in buildings? That is because glass though having properties of a solid, continues to flow being pulled by gravity.

eggersmann glass door styles are offered in six frame configurations and available in nearly unlimited color combinations.

Aside from its natural reflective and attractive physical properties, glass is also the right choice for those concerned with hygiene. Glass is easy to clean and to maintain.  Taken care of in the right way, it will last you a lifetime. We recommend eggersmann glass cleaner to protect your glass surfaces.
