Key checks for Newcastle-under-Lyme projects
How it works
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
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.
Storage on site
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.

Why is insulated fire glass so much more expensive?
It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.

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 Newcastle-under-Lyme?
