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

Insulated fire glass, classified EI, is glazing that maintains integrity and keeps the temperature rise on the non-fire side within set limits for the rated time. It is usually made of several glass panes bonded with interlayers that foam into an insulating barrier when heated, or with a clear gel that absorbs heat.

  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups
  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units
  • Matched glazing systems and seals

Key checks for Woking 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.

Optical quality

Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.

The temperature rule

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.
