Insulated fire glass, classified EI, is glazing that maintains integrity and keeps the temperature rise on the non-fire side within set limits for the rated time. It is usually made of several glass panes bonded with interlayers that foam into an insulating barrier when heated, or with a clear gel that absorbs heat.
We cover Morden and the surrounding postcode districts, including SM4, SW20, CR4, SW19, KT4, SM5. Nearby towns we also serve include Mitcham, Wimbledon, Carshalton. Morden sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Mitcham.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
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.
