ABSTRACT:
A glass panel comprising a pair of glass sheets (1, 2) disposed with respective faces thereof confronting each other in face-to-face relationship with a gap (V) therebetween and with peripheral edges of the glass sheets (1, 2) being bonded with a bonding sealant (4) to be sealed thereby; an evacuating port (5) for evacuating gas present within said gap (V) to the outside; and a getter (7) for coming into contact with the gas within said gap (V), wherein said evacuating port (5) includes a getter-retaining space (6) for retaining said getter (7) therein, said port (5) being formed in one (1) of said pair of glass sheets (1, 2), said getter (7) being retained within said getter-retaining space (6), said evacuating port (5) being closed and sealed by means of a lid (8). After the peripheral edges of the glass sheets (1, 2) are bonded and sealed by a bonding sealant (4), the gas present within said gap (V) is drawn and evacuated through said evacuating port (5) with said getter (7) being retained within said getter-retaining space (6), then, said evacuating port (5) is closed and sealed by bonding a lid (8) to said one glass sheet (1).
