Zhejiang Jingtai Glass Technology Co., Ltd.: Leading a New Era of Compliance Upgrading in the Specialty Glass Industry with Compliance as the Foundation and Quality as the Core.
Sep 04,2026
In September 2026, China's specialty glass industry reached a crucial juncture in its "compliance upgrade." The mandatory national standard GB 46030—2025 "Safety Technical Requirements for Safety Glass for Buildings" and its supporting national standards GB/T 15763.1~4—2025 "Safety Glass for Buildings" had been officially implemented for one month. Simultaneously, the mandatory product certification implementation rules (CNCA-C13-01) officially came into effect on July 1, 2026. The combined implementation of these new standards and rules signifies that the building safety glass industry has officially entered a new era based on compliance and quality.
As a national high-tech enterprise with nearly two decades of experience in the deep processing of specialty glass, Zhejiang Jingtai Glass Technology Co., Ltd. has delivered an outstanding performance in this compliance upgrade test—it has completed the technical benchmarking and process upgrade of the new national standard ahead of schedule, and its tempered glass products successfully obtained the EU CE certification in March 2026. From CCC certification to EU CE certification, from the "Zhejiang Manufacturing" mark certification to full compliance with the new national standards, Jingtai Glass is leading a new era of compliance upgrades in the specialty glass industry, based on compliance and centered on quality.
I. New National Standards Take Effect: A "Mandatory General Framework" Established for Architectural Safety Glass for the First Time
On August 1, 2026, the much-anticipated series of new national standards for architectural safety glass officially came into effect. The mandatory national standard GB 46030—2025 "Safety Technical Requirements for Architectural Safety Glass," approved and released by the State Administration for Market Regulation, along with a series of supporting national standards including GB/T 15763.1~4—2025 "Architectural Safety Glass" and GB/T 11944 "Insulating Glass," were simultaneously implemented.
This marks the first time that a mandatory national standard for architectural safety glass has been released in the form of a "unified general framework." The new standard addresses the issues of fragmented standards and incomplete safety indicators in the past by establishing a comprehensive safety management system of "mandatory general principles + specific product categories," uniformly covering five major categories: tempered glass, homogeneous tempered glass, laminated glass, safety insulated glass, and fire-resistant glass.
The new standard makes three core provisions: First, it unifies and clarifies the mandatory inspection items, including falling ball impact peeling, shot bag impact, fragmentation state, bending strength, weather resistance, and fire resistance. Second, it refines the differentiated safety indicators for each category—strictly limiting the number of fragments and minimum bending strength requirements for tempered glass, and classifying fire-resistant glass into three categories: A (insulated), B (partially insulated), and C (non-insulated), with five fire resistance ratings ranging from 0.5 hours to 3 hours. Third, it unifies the closed-loop testing and comprehensive judgment mechanism, standardizing quality evaluation methods and judgment rules. The implementation of the new national standard will effectively prevent and mitigate building safety hazards such as glass breakage injuries and fire spread, and promote the transformation and upgrading of the architectural glass industry towards high quality and high technology. Meanwhile, the mandatory product certification implementation rules for safety glass (CNCA-C13-01) officially came into effect on July 1, 2026. The rules explicitly require that products such as architectural tempered glass and laminated glass must comply with the new standard, and the results of supervisory sampling inspections will serve as the basis for the standard upgrade. This means that companies that fail to complete the standard upgrade in time will face the risk of having their CCC certificates suspended or revoked.
Industry insiders point out that after the implementation of the new national standard, inferior tempered glass will gradually be eliminated from the market. This major test of compliance upgrade is accelerating the industry reshuffling—only companies with advanced manufacturing capabilities, strict quality control systems, and rapid compliance response capabilities will be able to stand firm in the new round of industrial competition.
II. Zhejiang Jingtai Glass: Early Planning, Comprehensive Compliance
In this major test of compliance upgrade, Zhejiang Jingtai Glass Technology Co., Ltd. has delivered an impressive performance.
At the standard benchmarking level, the company has already conducted comprehensive technical benchmarking and process upgrades in accordance with the new national standard. In the field of fire-resistant glass, the company has established three major product lines: nano-silicon composite fire-resistant glass, monolithic cesium potassium fire-resistant glass, and composite heat-insulating fire-resistant glass. Nano-silicon composite fire-resistant glass achieves a transparency of over 95%, and the 45mm specification can withstand temperatures exceeding 1000℃, with no flame penetration or significant temperature rise within two hours, fully meeting the stringent requirements of the new national standard for fire-resistant glass's fire resistance and heat insulation performance. In the field of tempered glass, the company has systematically optimized its production line process parameters to meet the new national standard, ensuring that key indicators such as fragmentation state and surface stress fully comply with the requirements. In the field of laminated glass, the combination of two fully automated laminated glass production lines and two automatic circulating infrared heating autoclaves ensures that multi-layer composite products fully meet the new standard requirements in terms of performance such as drop ball impact peeling and fragmentation.
At the international certification level, in March 2026, the company's tempered glass products successfully obtained the certificate issued by the EU CE certification body. CE certification, a mandatory safety standard in the EU market, signifies that products meet the stringent requirements of the EU Building Products Regulation (CPR, Regulation (EU) 305/2011) in terms of health, safety, and environmental protection. This certification not only provides safety assurance and quality assurance for the company's tempered glass products exported to the EU market but also signifies that the company has reached an internationally advanced level in its quality control system.
At the standard-setting level, the company has moved from "implementing standards" to "setting standards." The company led the development of the "Zhejiang Manufacturing" standard 0277—2017, "Lightweight High-Transparency Bulletproof and Impact-Resistant Composite Glass," and passed the Zhejiang Manufacturing Quality Mark certification. Products defined by this standard maintain dual bulletproof and impact-resistant functions while reducing weight by 20% to 33% and increasing light transmittance from the national standard of 75% to over 85%. From "implementing standards" to "setting standards," Jingtai Glass has completed the leap from industry follower to rule definer.
III. The Quality System Behind Compliance: Full-Chain Guarantee from CCC to CE
Behind the compliance certification is the systematic support of the company's full-chain quality control system. Zhejiang Jingtai Glass Technology Co., Ltd. has successively passed ISO9001 quality management system, ISO14001 environmental management system, ISO45001 occupational health and safety management system certification, and the integration of informatization and industrialization management system certification. Its products have passed the China Building Materials Testing and Certification Center's national mandatory product "CCC" certification, the China Classification Society's factory approval certificate, and the Ministry of Emergency Management's Tianjin Fire Products Research Institute's fire protection product certification. From domestic "CCC" certification to EU CE certification, from "Zhejiang Manufacturing" quality mark certification to China Classification Society factory approval, the company has built a complete quality certification system covering major domestic and international markets.
On the manufacturing side, the company's glass deep processing production lines are equipped with industry-leading equipment: 3 fully automatic glass cutting production lines, 4 fully automatic high-speed intelligent double-sided glass production lines, 2 double-chamber forced convection tempering production lines, 2 fully automatic laminated glass production lines, 2 automatic circulating infrared heating autoclaves, 2 bulletproof and impact-resistant (riot-proof) glass production lines, 4 fully automatic insulated glass production lines, and 2 fireproof glass production lines. This comprehensive production line system, covering all processes including cutting, edging, tempering, lamination, insulating glass, and screen printing, provides a solid guarantee for the large-scale and stable production of high-quality specialty glass.
Regarding testing capabilities, the company has established a provincial-level high-tech enterprise research and development center, possessing 86 independent intellectual property rights. Relying on this technological platform, the company has established a multi-dimensional product testing system covering optical performance, mechanical properties, fire resistance, and weather resistance, ensuring that every batch of specialty glass products meets high domestic and international standards in terms of safety performance, optical quality, and durability.
IV. A New Market Landscape Driven by Compliance: Accelerated Release of Quality Dividends
