Fire-Rated Glass Floors in Market Harborough: 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.
- Tested walk-on fire-rated glass floor systems
- Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
- Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
- Coordination with the structural engineer

Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Sizes are limited
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
