Abstract: A glass cooktop includes a single planar glass substrate having an exposed upper surface and an interior lower surface. A perimeter is disposed about an outer edge of the single planar glass substrate. A gasket is disposed on the interior surface radially inward from the perimeter of the single planar glass substrate. The gasket is adapted to absorb energy associated with a breaking of the single planar glass substrate such that a plurality of broken sections of the single planar glass substrate are retained by the gasket.
