Saflex Structural interlayer is a PVB interlayer designed for applications where interlayer rigidity and high glass adhesion requirements for laminated glass are critical.
Thanks to the strength and stiffness of Saflex Structural interlayer, laminated glass can sustain higher loads or be made thinner while maintaining the same load capacity while keeping the same load and area as compared to conventional laminated glass. It is compatible with most glass types, including annealed, heat-strengthened, and fully tempered glass. Heat-strengthened glass combined with Saflex Structural interlayer offers advantages such as reduced optical distortion, resistance to thermal stress breakage, lower risk of spontaneous breakage, and good residual strength after breakage.
DG-41:
High-strength solution for load-bearing applications.
- Visible Light Transmittance: 82%

Ideal Application:
- Open edge laminates
- Stairs
- Balconies
- Canopies
- Sloped and overhead glazing
- Glass floors
- Point glazing systems
- Captured systems
- Curtail walls for both interior and exterior applications
ACOUSTIC:
As a result of Saflex Acoustic PVB interlayer availability, architects and engineers can design elegant spaces that reduce perceived loudness by up to 50%—decreasing transmitted sound up to 10 decibels versus non-laminated glass, in the critical frequency range.
This patented, tri-layer system targets sound in the 1000–4000 Hz range (an area sensitive in human hearing) for superior sound damping in laminated safety glass.
