Discreet. Secure. Compliant. Built for Diplomatic Infrastructure.

mbassies and consulates require more than architectural elegance—they demand glass systems that balance aesthetics with high security, privacy, and performance. At Centennial Glass, we work with embassies and diplomatic missions in Ottawa to supply and install premium-grade, code-compliant glass solutions for sensitive and public areas. From bullet- and blast-resistant glass to privacy partitions and energy-efficient façades, we deliver glazing systems that meet strict safety protocols while reflecting your country’s presence with dignity and precision.
