Glassware used in the kitchen are typically made from tempered glass or borosilicate glass because they are more durable and resistant to thermal shock. Thin glasses are more prone to breaking or shattering when exposed to sudden changes in temperature, which is common in a kitchen environment. Thicker glassware is also more reliable for handling hot and cold liquids.
