What our integrity fire glass service includes in Welwyn Garden City

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
  • Polished wired glass where still appropriate
  • Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass
  • Impact-classified integrity options

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.
