Basic Clarity. Easy to Cut. Ideal for Non-Safety Applications.
Annealed glass is the most common, standard type of flat glass used in commercial buildings. It’s produced through a controlled cooling process that relieves internal stresses, making it stable and workable for a wide range of interior and low-impact applications. At Centennial Glass, we supply and cut annealed glass to size for commercial spaces across Ottawa—ideal for partitions, shelving, furniture inserts, and decorative glazing where safety glazing isn’t required.

Cost-Effective and Customizable
Annealed glass is versatile and budget-friendly—perfect for commercial projects that require transparency, simplicity, or secondary glazing components. We frequently use annealed panels in:
- Interior windows and glass partitions
- Framed cabinet doors or shelving
- Furniture inlays and decorative features
- Framed mirrors and lightboxes
- Vision panels in protected areas
While annealed glass is not impact-resistant like tempered or laminated options, it remains a practical, customizable material for safe, interior environments.
Key Benefits
- Standard Float Glass
- Cost-Effective Option
- Easily Cut and Shaped
Annealed glass is easy to work with cutting, drilling, and edge-finishing can be done before any additional treatment like tinting, coating, or lamination.
Custom Cutting, Edging & Integration
Centennial Glass offers in-house glass fabrication for annealed panels, including:
- Straight cuts and shaped panels
- Polished, beveled, or pencil edges
- Cut-outs for hardware, hinges, or lighting
- Silk-screening, acid etching, and frosting options
- Custom sizing for frames, millwork, or retail displays
We also offer annealed mirrors, painted glass, and custom fabricated insert panels for interior doors, cabinetry, and shelving.
