Single-Pane Simplicity. Reliable Performance. Built for Interior & Retrofit Use.
Monolithic glass is a single sheet of flat glass offering clarity, flexibility, and a cost-effective solution for low-impact commercial applications. While not insulated or laminated, monolithic glass serves as a foundational option for partitions, displays, and retrofits where thermal or safety performance isn’t required. At Centennial Glass, we custom-cut and install monolithic glass for commercial interiors and light-use glazing across Ottawa.
Need basic glazing for interior or non-load-bearing spaces?
Simple and Versatile for Low-Demand Applications
Monolithic glass is best suited for interior and secondary-glazing use in commercial settings. It’s frequently used in:
- Interior office partitions and vision panels
- Framed display cases and shelving
- Furniture glass and table tops
- Mirrors, signs, and custom décor
- Low-rise or secondary glazing retrofits
We offer monolithic glass in clear, tinted, or acid-etched finishes, with custom shapes and edge options to meet your design or retrofit needs.

Where It’s Typically Used
Monolithic glass is ideal in:
