Floors, stairs and roofs

Creating the illusion of extra space

Glass floors, staircases and roofs have become classic design features in modern architecture. They are both functional and artistic. Control the amount of natural light you wish to let in by opting for fully transparent or partially translucent glass – and enjoy a sparkling view of the outside world.

If you have smaller space to work with, a glass staircase or a section of glass flooring gives the illusion of extra space.

Why choose

AGC

Incorporating glass into floors, stairs and roofs is a big challenge for manufacturers and designers. Using special architectural glass that has been chemically treated, heat-treated and/or laminated, it is possible to make it strong enough to support its own weight and the weight of the people on it. AGC also offers various tints of glass and surface treatments that deliver additional benefits, such as anti-slip properties or diffused lighting. Special laminated compositions ensure maximum safety for glass roofs.
