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.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
