SAFETY GLASS 

The Toughened Safety Glass used in the ROBAND

®

 Pie Warmers is approximately 

five  times  stronger  than  normal  glass.    In  addition  to  this  strength  the  toughened 
glass  is  able  to  handle  high  temperatures  and  it  is  designed  to  shatter  into  small, 
relatively  harmless  pieces  in  the  event  of  breakage.  These  glass  pieces  can  be 
collected carefully by hand without resulting in lacerations. 

It is important to note however, that the edges of these pieces of glass are no more 
durable than normal glass and must therefore be handled with care when cleaning. 

This  type  of  glass  has  a  rather  unusual  property  as  a  direct  result  of  its  toughened 
nature.  When the glass takes an impact that does not immediately shatter the piece, 
it  “stores”  that  stress  in  the  glass  layers.    This  stress  “storage”  is  invisible  and 
unmeasurable, but it is there nonetheless.   

The storing of a stress is only temporary.  If the glass suffers a sufficient impact and 
the stress is stored, it will one day be released.  There is no way to measure when 
this release will occur, it could be after a few minutes, or it could be years later.  When 
the stored stress is released the glass will spontaneously shatter.  This could occur at 
any time, even when the machine is off and nobody is near it. 

On 

extremely rare

 

occasions a glass door will “explode”.  This is a rare but entirely 

normal  property  of  the  glass,  and  although  pieces  of  shattered  glass  may  travel 
several metres, if they do contact bare skin they should not cause injury (even if you 
are directly in front of the explosion).  It is important that any contaminated product be 
thrown away. 

Toughened  Safety  glass  is  also  commonly  found  in  the  building  industry  and  the 
automotive industry (for side windows) and displays the same properties there. 

The alternative is to have glass that can be very dangerous when broken, or worse, 
could chip off and fall onto the food within (without being noticed).  It is the opinion of 
Roband Australia that this glass is superior to both “Clear Float” and “Ceramic” glass 
with  regards  to  function  and  safety.    If  glass  doors  are  a  concern  a  set  of  stainless 
steel doors may be purchased (contact your supplier).
