What would happen if you stoned the glass of a padel court? For the first time, NXPadel conducted a crash test on its ComfortGlass to find out the result.

For what reasons can glass on a padel court break?

  • As you know, the most common and well-known cause, including from the many videos circulating on the Web, is the violent impacts of a player against glass during a game, an event that undoubtedly becomes dangerous both for those inside and for the audience outside the court who could see an entire XNUMX-foot wall of glass collapse directly above their heads at any moment.
  • The second cause may be the wind, which, when it blows intensely as during hurricanes or violent storms, tends to vibrate the glass in the court causing that, if the layers of silicone sandwiched between one wall and the other have begun to wear down excessively and if they have not been filled beforehand, two panes of glass may touch each other leading to their breaking. .
  • However, there is a third cause, perhaps the most insidious and frustrating for a club but not to be underestimated or less frequent: we are talking about the possibility of a padel court being vandalized through the throwing of stones or objects on the glass walls thus shattering them. , thus shattering them.

But what if all this happened on the ComfortGlass walls of the NXPadel Courts?
