Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →For Rutherglen buildings, we supply, replace and check insulated fire glass wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
We cover Rutherglen and the surrounding postcode districts, including G73, G40, G42, G45, G32, G44. Nearby towns we also serve include Cambuslang, Glasgow, East Kilbride. Rutherglen lies roughly 8 km from East Kilbride, within our Lanarkshire coverage.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.
Yes. We survey and install in Rutherglen and across Lanarkshire, including the G73 district and nearby Cambuslang.
