Is Tempered Glass Durable? - How Strong It Is?
The major difference between tempered glass vs regular glass is the limit to bear the amount of weight and impact, no doubt, toughened glass wins the debate!

This instant cooling procedure makes a glass pane 4 times stronger than ordinary glass to provide users with the maximum safety and comfort around. You're most likely not going to face any serious injury when a tempered glass shatters down, as it breaks into small, granular pieces.
