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 glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.
Building guidance restricts how much integrity-only glass can be used on protected escape routes and where it can sit. Check the route before choosing E glass.
Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.
Our West Midlands coverage takes in Solihull (B91, B90, B92, B27, B28, B93) and the neighbouring towns of Shirley, Acocks Green, Birmingham. Birmingham, around 11 km from Solihull, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Solihull identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Solihull building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
Integrity fire glass applies to many building types in Solihull, including retail and leisure units and blocks of flats.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
In limited amounts and positions. Building guidance sets the rules; insulating glass is used where those limits are exceeded.
