Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →For Redhill buildings, we supply, replace and check insulated fire glass wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
EI testing limits the average temperature rise on the unexposed face to 140°C and any single point to 180°C, which is why people can pass it.
Our Surrey coverage takes in Redhill (RH1, RH2) and the neighbouring towns of Reigate, Horley, Caterham. Woking, around 28 km from Redhill, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Every quote in Redhill identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Redhill budgets are not open-ended.
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.
We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, care homes and other building types in Redhill.
It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.
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.
Survey timing in Redhill 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.
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.
