Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.

EI glass is the choice where people need to pass close to the glass during a fire, where combustible materials sit near it, or where building guidance would otherwise restrict glazing. We supply and fit EI 30 to EI 120 glass in tested frames, internally and externally.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bracknell budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
EI testing limits the average temperature rise on the unexposed face to 140°C and any single point to 180°C, which is why people can pass it.
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
Whether the building is in central Bracknell or the wider RG12, RG42 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Crowthorne, Wokingham, Sandhurst. Bracknell lies roughly 16 km from Reading, within our Berkshire coverage.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Sector guides below cover public buildings, schools and colleges and other buildings in Bracknell.
Only products approved for external use, usually in a sealed unit with UV protection.
The glazing system kept fire on one side (integrity) and limited the temperature rise on the other side (insulation) for at least 60 minutes in a standard fire test.
Building work in Bracknell follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
