Before you order in West Glamorgan
Programme
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Sizes are limited
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Regulations for West Glamorgan projects
Wales Which rules apply?
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.
Questions from West Glamorgan clients
What does REI mean?
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
How big can a fire-rated glass floor panel be?
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
Can we see through it?
Yes, with clear glass and an anti-slip finish, or obscured if privacy is needed.

All of it: Swansea, Neath, Briton Ferry, Gorseinon and every district in the SA postcode areas.
