Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Lytham St Annes: 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.

  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups
  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units

Storage on site

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