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 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.
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
Coverage around Camborne includes the TR14, TR15 districts and nearby Redruth, Falmouth, Truro. Camborne lies roughly 6 km from Truro, within our Cornwall coverage.
Every quote in Camborne 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.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Camborne budgets are not open-ended.
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 hotels, schools and colleges and other buildings in Camborne.
Only products approved for external use, usually in a sealed unit with UV protection.
