Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in East Kilbride: what's included
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.
- Matched glazing systems and seals
- Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units
- Internal and external-grade build-ups
- Handling and installation of heavy panes
Key checks for East Kilbride projects
Exterior positions
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Optical quality
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
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.
