Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW) in Dartford: what's included

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.

  • EW laminated glass with radiation control
  • Matched beads and seals
  • Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass
  • Modified toughened integrity glass
