Front windshields are designed to protect you and your passengers from flying debris, dirt, and dust in the event of an accident, and to keep you from flying out of the car in the event of a head on collision.

When you opt for a custom shower enclosure, there are many designs to choose from, such as frameless shower doors, sandblasted leaves designs, shower stall enclosures with a curved top and double glass screen, or a frameless shower door.

Sliding or bypass shower doors are a good option for homeowners not limited by space but who have a stand-alone shower. These doors are available in many different styles to fit your specific preferences.

Colored and frosted blocks are a great choice for just about any type of shower since they allow you to add a unique design touch to your glass block shower walls.

One advantage of installing a custom shower enclosure in your bathroom is that you can incorporate it into just about any size or style of bathroom.

In the 1990s, windshields included tiny microsensors that activated the windshield wipers whenever rain was detected on the windshield. The microsensors could also adjust the speed of the wipers based on the intensity of the rain.

If you want to get creative with your company logo and name, you should consider art glass, which can be customized to fit your company's design.

Tiny chips in your windshield can easily become large cracks if not treated in a timely fashion. Extreme weather, humidity, a slight impact, or even a bumpy road can turn that minor crack into a major problem.

Although it may not be readily apparent to the naked eye, most auto glass is tinted blue, green, or brown. If you're not sure which color is in your vehicle, try holding a piece of white paper behind the glass.

Have you seen vehicles that do not need wipers to keep the windshield clear during rain storms? These vehicles use hydrophobic glass, which turns the windshield into something like a waxed surface. Rain beads up and runs off the glass naturally.

Glass is a material that is easily recycled due to its lack of deterioration over time. Used glass can be broken into smaller pieces and then melted with silica sand, soda ash and limestone to create glass that is fitting for new containers.

Did you know that the first glassmaking manual is well over 1000 years old? A booklet on how to make glass was discovered in the library of the Assyrian King Ashurbanipal, and the booklet has been dated to around 650 B.C.

Like so many things, man-made glass was an accidental discovery. Pliny, the famous Roman historian, records an account of Phoenician merchants who discovered glass when they placed hot cooking pots on blocks of nitrate which were resting on sand.
