Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →For Blyth buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated glass floors wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Coverage around Blyth includes the NE24 districts and nearby Ashington, Cramlington, Whitley Bay. Blyth is the largest town in our Northumberland coverage.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Every quote in Blyth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, offices and other buildings in Blyth.
Yes, with clear glass and an anti-slip finish, or obscured if privacy is needed.
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
