The tempered glass table took the interior design industry by surprise. When it was first introduced, its popularity gained rapidly and spread like wild fire. Today, it is here to stay. Gone are the days where pine and rose wood tables decorate the homes of the rich and famous. These once magnificent pieces of furniture are now a thing of the past. They have been replaced by the more elegant, trendy and futuristic kind.
Unlike its predecessor, the tempered glass table has many benefits to the user and also to the environment. Besides its normal function as a table, it induces a futuristic, post modern touch to the interior of the house. In fact, most interior designers nowadays try to incorporate it into their designs.

In addition to this, the tempered glass table is environmentally friendly and promotes sustainability. All this comes from the fact that the materials used in its production are recyclable. Traditionally, tables were made of wood. After a while, the wood would suffer wear and tear and eventually are discarded. While some wood are recycled, most of them are sent to landfills to be burnt and wasted causing a never ending demand for wood and thus environmental damage.
With the tempered glass table, the main materials are glass, aluminum or other forms of alloys. All these alloys can be produced from recycle materials. The same goes for tempered glass that can be produced from recycled glass. Thus, in addition to style, the tempered glass table is also a good choice for the environmentally conscious person.
Besides being stylish and sustainable, it is also a safe piece of furniture. Every year, approximately 20,000 emergency cases are reported due to ordinary glass table. This is because ordinary glass table breaks into many jagged shaped pieces. This is harmful as it may cut arteries or cause other more serious injuries.
However, in the case of the tempered glass table, the glass does not break in dangerous sharp jagged pieces. Instead, it breaks into thousands of smaller pieces that cause no more than a small cut or a scratch. All this can be attributed to its manufacturing process.
Compared to normal glass, it is heat treated to increase its strength. As a result it is able to withstand more force and stronger impacts. In addition to this, the microstructure of the glass is changed such that the glass shatters into smaller pieces rather than into few sharp and dangerous pieces when it breaks.
All this makes it an obvious choice when choosing the furniture for your home. It gives your home a futuristic feel and at the same time ensures the safety of its occupants. In addition to this, it helps you to play your part in preserving the environment.
