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.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
Coverage around Lichfield includes the WS13, WS14 districts and nearby Burntwood, Tamworth, Aldridge. Stoke-on-Trent, around 43 km from Lichfield, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

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