Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW) in Sudbury: 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.

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

What to check before ordering integrity fire glass in Sudbury

Cost advantage

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

Not insulating

E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.

Impact safety

Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
