Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →From the RH16 district outwards, we arrange integrity fire glass for buildings across Haywards Heath, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
If an existing frame in a Haywards Heath building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Haywards Heath identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Haywards Heath around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Integrity-only glass may be acceptable in some fire-resisting partitions, screens and doors, often at high level, within the limits national guidance sets. Compartment walls normally need insulating (EI) glazing.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Haywards Heath, including the RH16, RH17, RH15 districts, and in nearby Burgess Hill, Crawley, East Grinstead. Haywards Heath is about 14 km from Crawley, the largest town in our West Sussex coverage.
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.
Sector guides below cover offices, industrial units and other buildings in Haywards Heath.
Yes, considerably, and it is thinner and lighter.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
Building work in Haywards Heath follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
