Fire-Rated Glass Floors in Farnborough: what's included

A fire-rated glass floor is a walk-on glazed floor panel, set in a tested support frame, that keeps both its load-bearing capacity and its fire resistance for a stated time. Because a floor carries load, its classification also includes R for load-bearing capacity alongside integrity and insulation.

  • Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
  • Steel support frames to the tested details
  • Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
  • Handover evidence
