CURVED GLASS
CUSTOM CURVED GLASS
The curved annealed glass supplied by Glass Benders, is manufactured in-house. Glass is bent by applying heat in specialized glass bending kilns.
As the heated glass sheet softens, it forms over the specific mould that is being used. Moulds are made from templates or created from CAD drawings. Annealed glass bends can be laminated to produce laminated safety glass bends.
We supply a wide range of customers with curved glass; from large curved and laminated structural panels of 3 x 2.5 meters to small curved pieces with a 90mm radius to convex glass bowls for mirrors.

Furniture
At Glass Benders we custom make a variety of glass tables and desks.
Curved glass can be used as supports for glass table tops and we manufacture a variety of ‘C’ Bends for this purpose. The C-Bends can be arranged in many different ways to provide the support for a glass table tops. Large flattish C-Bends have been used as spectacular supports for ten and twelve seater boardroom and dining tables.
Clients have used clear C-Bend supports for coloured glass tops to create the effect of a ‘floating’ table. Glass curved into a ‘U’ bend can be used for coffee tables, or placed on edge as a glass desk support.
The coffee table U bends come in two sizes; 1250mm long and 780mm long, however, the width and height can be specified – for example, the U-Bend can be made narrow and tall and be used as a server, or short and wide for a low square coffee table.
We have made items as diverse as pulpits and cake stands to curved glass urinal splashbacks!
