Why is tempered glass important

I often get asked why we prefer tempered glass for certain installations. It’s really all about safety — the process it undergoes makes it much stronger and if it breaks, it shatters into tiny, less harmful pieces. Anyone else notice an increase in tempered glass use in residential projects recently?
