What you can expect in Worksop

Work around occupied buildings
We can phase work in Worksop around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Key checks for Worksop projects
Thickness and weight
Each step up in rating adds layers, so EI 120 is far thicker and heavier than EI 30. The frame has to be designed for it.
How it works
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Optical quality
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
