Key checks for Basildon 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.

What EW adds

EW glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.

Cost advantage

Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
