Curved Glass

Trent Glass Curved Glass is precision-bent toughened or laminated glass, manufactured to project-specific radii for facades, balustrades, staircases, cylindrical lifts, shop fronts and feature interiors. Each panel is custom-shaped — supply us with a CAD drawing, sketch or measured template and we’ll match curvature, height, width and edge condition exactly.

We handle curved glass as a routine specification: tight-radius bends, large-format panels, double-glazed curved units, balustrade-grade laminates and BS-certified safety glass. Tight tolerances on radius, edge condition and certification — all confirmed at quote against your drawings.

Key Features

Custom Radius and Geometry

Cylindrical, conical and partial-spherical curves available. Minimum radius depends on glass thickness and construction — quote on drawings.

Toughened or Laminated Construction

Heat-soaked toughened for impact resistance, or laminated with structural interlayer for fall-protection (Class A / B per BS 6206). Both options retain optical clarity through the curve.

Large-Format Capability

Single-panel curved glass up to architectural facade scale, including double-glazed curved IGUs for thermal envelopes.

Safety-Rated

Toughened to BS EN 12150; laminated to BS EN 14449. CE / UKCA marking documented on delivery.

Edge and Finish Options

Polished, ground, mitred or pencil-edged. Clear, low-iron, tinted, frosted, ceramic-printed or coloured back-painted.

Ideal Applications

Curved glass facades and curtain walls
Helical and spiral staircase enclosures
Cylindrical and panoramic lifts
Curved balustrades and Juliet balconies
Shop fronts and luxury retail displays
Restaurant booths, reception desks and feature walls
Cupolas, domes and rooflights
