Tempered Glass Tabletop

Tempered glass dining tables are a contemporary and durable addition to modern dining spaces, combining style and resilience. The manufacturing process of our tempered glass begins with selecting thick, high-quality float glass, which offers superior clarity and minimal imperfections, ensuring a flawless visual experience. 

The cut glass piece undergoes a tempering process for enhanced strength and safety. This involves heating the glass to a high temperature (around 600°C) and then rapidly cooling it with air blasts. This process creates compressive stress on the surface of the glass, making it significantly resistant to breakage and shattering, boasting 4 to 5 times the durability of standard glass with improved minor scratch & heat resistance. After tempering, the edges of the glass are polished to create a smooth and finished look.

Key Benefits

• Safety: Tempered glass is significantly stronger and more resistant to breakage than standard glass, ideal for busy households and high-traffic dining areas.
• Easy Maintenance: Tempered glass tables are effortless to clean. Spills, stains, and marks can be quickly wiped away, keeping your table looking pristine.
• Contemporary Aesthetics: Tempered glass offers a sleek and modern appearance that complements various interior styles.
• Durability: Tempered glass is resistant to scratches, heat, and stains, providing added peace of mind during meals and gatherings.
• Environmentally Friendly: Tempered glass is an eco-friendly material that can be recycled and repurposed, reducing the demand for new resources and energy consumption.
• Illuminating Effect: The transparency of glass can create an illusion of space and make the room feel brighter by reflecting light.

Care Guide

• Regular Dusting: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to dust the table's surface regularly to prevent the buildup of particles.
• Wipe with a Damp Cloth: For light cleaning, dampen a clean cloth with warm, soapy water, and gently wipe the glass. Rinse with a damp, clean cloth, and then dry with a lint-free cloth.
• Remove Spills Promptly: If any spills occur, blot them up immediately with a clean, damp cloth to prevent staining or etching on the glass.
• Use a Glass Cleaner: For a more thorough cleaning, apply a glass cleaner designed for glass and wipe with a lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that may scratch the surface.
• Protect from Heat and Moisture: Despite our tempered glass being more minor scratch & heat resistant to standard glass, we recommend using coasters or placements for hot dishes, plates & cutlery to safeguard it from potential heat damage and scratches. This simple step contributes to maintaining the table's pristine surface over the years.

High Gloss & Wood Effect Vinyl Base

The MDF core serves as the foundation, chosen for its stability and versatility. This core is expertly shaped and moulded into the desired form, ensuring structural integrity for the entire base. 

After the MDF core is shaped, it undergoes a thorough priming process to prepare the surface for the application of finishes. The first part of the base is coated with multiple layers of the dark champagne-coloured lacquer, with each layer thoroughly dried and polished between applications. This polishing stage is crucial for attaining the desired smoothness and reflective quality.

The second part of the base is finished with a wood effect vinyl, where designers develop a lifelike wood grain pattern, which is digitally printed onto the vinyl surface using advanced technologies. Craftsmen then apply the vinyl to the primed MDF core with precision, ensuring alignment to mimic natural wood grain, knots, and textures. Heat and pressure are applied during affixing, facilitating a secure bond and enhancing the realistic appearance. A protective coating is added for durability and resistance to wear, offering a warm and inviting alternative to traditional wood that is both aesthetically pleasing and easy to maintain.

Sizing Guide

• Space: Allow at least 90 cm (36 inches) of clearance between the table and the walls or other furniture to ensure comfortable seating and movement.
• Table Shape: For long rooms and open spaces, rectangular or oval tables often are the most natural fit, maximising space utilisation and creating a balanced look. Round or square tables can also work if you want to leave extra room for additional furniture pieces to complement your dining area. For smaller dining areas, round or square tables are often the ideal choice, promoting conversation and creating a sense of intimacy.
