Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Lichfield: what's included

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.

  • Internal and external-grade build-ups
  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units
  • Matched glazing systems and seals
  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass

Before you order insulated fire glass: what matters

Storage on site

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

How it works

When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.

Exterior positions

Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.

Questions about insulated fire glass in Lichfield

Does EI glass need replacing after a fire?

Yes. Once the interlayers have reacted, the glass has done its job and must be replaced.

What does EI 60 mean?

The glazing system kept fire on one side (integrity) and limited the temperature rise on the other side (insulation) for at least 60 minutes in a standard fire test.

Can you price insulated fire glass in Lichfield from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.

How quickly can you survey in Lichfield?

Survey timing in Lichfield depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
