What type of glass can use in a padel court?
According to the Documentation of “Regulations of The Padel Game” from The International Padel Federation (FIP):
The walls may be made of any transparent or opaque material (glass, brick, etc.) but always with the correct consistency and which ensures a uniform bounce of the ball. Whatever the material it must have a uniform surface which is hard and completely smooth, and which allow bodily contact or sliding balls.
The color of opaque walls should be of one, uniform color and preferably of green, blue or terracotta tone, and clearly different than the floor surface colour. It will be allowed the logo imprinting or painting but not more than one for single wall and with dimension and colours that do not interfere with player’s vision.
Glass courts must comply with the standards for tempered/plate glass:
– European Union: EN 12150-1.
– Other countries: Should consult their own standards

So the padel court glass is usually 10mm or 12mm tempered glass, with a flat surface and polish edge.
