Perhaps you could do so? I have several pieces of laminated glass which
are toughened. i.e. the laminate is a sheet of toughened glass, the

Bull**** Steve.

Talk to a glass laminator and they might (if they can be arsed to talk
to know-it-all ****wit #3 round here) why you can't have toughened in
a lamination.

If you find a way of doing this, there's a market calling out for it.
If you think you can do it with a cold adhesive laminate then there's
already a market for that, but it's no use to man nor beast as it
looks bad and it has no more strength than plain toughened.


They use such laminates in shopping centres like Merry Hill and in
escalators and balconies (well the ones that are done properly).
You can go and look at the toughening marks and the plastic interlayer if
you want to actually see some.

BTW why can't you have a toughened glass laminate?
