Key checks for Amersham projects
Where integrity glass fits
Integrity-only glass may be acceptable in some fire-resisting partitions, screens and doors, often at high level, within the limits national guidance sets. Compartment walls normally need insulating (EI) glazing.
Impact safety
Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.
Not insulating
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
