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.
We can phase work in Briton Ferry around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Briton Ferry budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
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.
Coverage around Briton Ferry includes the SA11, SA12 districts and nearby Neath, Swansea, Maesteg. Briton Ferry is about 9 km from Swansea, the largest town in our West Glamorgan coverage.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.
We can survey and quote for offices, industrial units and other building types in Briton Ferry.
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.

Yes. We survey and install in Briton Ferry and across West Glamorgan, including the SA11 district and nearby Neath.
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.
