Glass balustrades have become a defining feature in contemporary hotel and leisure design - offering both striking visual appeal and essential safety in busy, high-traffic environments. From sleek interiors to dramatic hotel staircases and light-filled atriums, balustrades manufactured with Saint-Gobain glass deliver the perfect balance of performance and sophistication.
At Saint-Gobain Glass, we provide a wide portfolio of architectural glass solutions tailored to the demands of balustrade applications. Our products combine design versatility with style, sustainability, and proven durability:
• ORAÉ®: Saint-Gobain Glass’s innovative lower carbon glass, designed to significantly reduce the environmental footprint of a project without compromising on performance or aesthetics. ORAÉ® helps projects achieve sustainability targets while delivering outstanding clarity, light transmission, and long-term durability - making it an ideal choice for hotel, sport and leisure developments where sustainable design is a priority.
• DIAMANT®: a low-iron glass that maximises light transmission and delivers pure, ultra-clear edges - perfect for bright, open spaces where design and aesthetics are key.
• SATINOVO®: a translucent, matte-finish glass that introduces a satin like appearance and subtle privacy to internal areas.
To transform these high-performance products into fully compliant, ready-to-install balustrade systems, we work in close collaboration with TuffX. As specialists in designing and manufacturing toughened and laminated safety glass, TuffX ensures that Saint-Gobain Glass products- are integrated into balustrades that meet both aesthetic and performance expectations, while supporting projects’ sustainability goals.
