What our integrity fire glass service includes in Saddleworth
Integrity fire glass, classified E, stops flames and hot gases passing for the rated time but does not limit the heat coming through. EW glass adds a cap on the heat radiated through the glass. Both are thinner, lighter and cheaper than fully insulated glass.
- Modified toughened integrity glass
- Impact-classified integrity options
- EW laminated glass with radiation control
- Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass
Before you order integrity fire glass: what matters
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.
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.
