What our insulated fire glass service includes in St Neots

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.

  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Handling and installation of heavy panes
  • Matched glazing systems and seals

Key checks for St Neots projects

Thickness and weight

Each step up in rating adds layers, so EI 120 is far thicker and heavier than EI 30. The frame has to be designed for it.

Exterior positions

Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.

The temperature rule

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.
