Abstract

A composite pane (3) having at least two rigid (glass) plates (3.1, 3.2) and an intermediate layer (33) has flexible holding elements (4) which are positioned in the plane of the intermediate layer between the two rigid plates and extend over their outer edge, for securing the composite pane to a substructure or holding structure (1). According to the invention, flat sections of the holding elements (4) are inserted into corner and/or edge regions of the composite pane (4) and are provided with perforations (4P), and high-strength thin filaments (4F), fibres or woven strands are guided in looped form through or around these perforations (4P), in order thereby to form load-bearing parts of the flexible holding elements (4) which project outward out of the composite.
