Why is 3/8 tempered balcony enclosure glass so popular for high-rise apartments?
Strength and Safety: Tempered glass is heat-treated to increase its strength compared to regular glass. It can withstand impacts, strong winds, and heavy loads, which is especially important in high-rise settings. If it does break, it shatters into small, blunt pieces, reducing the risk of serious injuries.
Optimal Thickness: At 3/8 inch, the glass is thick enough to provide strong protection against environmental forces like wind and weather without being overly heavy. This thickness strikes a balance between durability and weight, making it easier to install and support.
Clear Views: Tempered glass provides a clear, unobstructed view, which appeals to residents who want to enjoy the scenery from their balconies without compromising on safety or aesthetics.
Weather Resistance: Even though unlike IGU glass with very good weather resistance, tempered glass also performs well under various weather conditions, resisting UV rays, moisture, and temperature changes, which makes it a long-lasting choice for outdoor balcony applications.

Excellent customized packages for 10mm balcony enclosure glass
Dragon Glass only use plywood crates because they are made from compressed and bonded wood, which makes them easy to export without the need for any complicated procedures.
Glass sizes often vary, so to ensure safe transportation, padding, and wooden blocks are placed inside plywood crates to provide cushioning between the glass pieces. The crates are then wrapped with plywood strips for added protection, as the less exposed, the safer they are. Diagonal braces made of plywood are essential for reinforcing the strength of the crate.
Many customers ask why we don’t use fully sealed packaging. The reason is that the more exposed the product, the safer it is. When transported by forklift or crane, the visibility of fragile items inside prompts extra caution during handling.
