Suncool(tm) Glass

Pilkington Suncool (tm) Glass helps to reduce solar heat gain and also reduce glare in hot climates. The coating is designed to allow short-wave solar radiation to be reflected while allowing long waves (generated from lighting, heating and the people who live in the building) to be able to pass through. This balances solar control and the high levels of natural light.

The neutral blue of the SN 70/35 type offers superior solar protection, with extremely low internal reflection and excellent light transmission - perfect for large areas of glazing. This permits the greatest amount of natural light to be absorbed into buildings, while reducing the need for artificial lighting. This can save energy and money on the cooling and heating of buildings throughout the year.

The glass was used to replace 380m2 of window panes at the Ridge Primary School, Gig Mill Primary School and Dudley Primary Schools in the West Midlands. This included the assembly hall as well as the entrance corridor offices and ICT Suites - as well as the nursery, corridors and restrooms. The new glass has allowed the schools to maintain an appropriate temperature and also save money on cooling and energy costs.

The patented U-channel design of the Intercept spacer reduces thermal conductivity and offers longer-lasting seals, which means exceptional energy savings - and helping make your Maryland sunroom feel comfortable all throughout the year.

Toughened Safety Glass

Toughened glass (also known as safety glass or tempered glass) is four to five time stronger than standard glass at the same thickness. It is created by heating annealed glasses to high temperatures, then cooling them rapidly. This strengthens the structure and makes the glass more resistant to heat damage and impact. When glass is broken toughened glass breaks into small, blunt, cube-shaped pieces that are less likely to cause injury than the sharp shards that are typical of glass.

The toughening process can be used to improve doors and windows that are already in use or to create new ones. This kind of glass is perfect for areas that require increased durability or resistance to thermal stress, for Conservatory Window Glass Replacement instance upvc conservatory roof repairs near me roofs glass shower doors and splashbacks, as well for tabletops and shelves in bathrooms and kitchens. It is also used in commercial buildings for glass wall panels, access doors for fire safety and defibrillation equipment, as well as stairs balustrades.

When installing new windows and doors, it is essential to consider the type of glass that will be used to construct the walls and masonry surrounding them. This can help reduce the amount of energy that is lost through the window, and eliminate the need for expensive insulation.

Another benefit of glasses with toughened glass is that they reduce dampness and condensation in your home. This is because toughened glass has the ability to absorb moisture from the air and stop it from being able to escape through the frame into the room.

Toughened glass can also be an excellent choice for windows and doors if you wish to minimize the noise from outside coming into your home. It is quieter when it breaks because it produces a dull thud instead of the typical cracking or shattering.

Leaded Glass

Leaded glass is a timeless option for enhancing the style of your conservatory. Its beauty accentuates the natural light, creating a warm space that can be enjoyed throughout the year.

We use a variety of materials to meet your particular needs and aesthetic preferences. For instance, our clear panels allow for maximum natural light, while our double-glazed options that are insulated can help conserve energy and also reduce noise.

We begin by creating an outline that will guide us in cutting the glass. Glass is cut using a variety of tools, including running or breaking pliers and a glass cutter. The glass pieces will then be fitted into a lead come which is a strip of metal that keeps the window in place. The lead came is shaped to suit any design and can include intricate details such as beveled edges, or even textures.

The finished product is soldered together to create a sturdy and secure window. It is essential to only make use of solder with a melting point similar to the alloy used in the lead glass and the came when the window was originally made. It is possible to damage the delicate leadwork and Conservatory Window glass replacement damage the strength of the window if you are not cautious.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass for conservatory windows is a popular choice because it provides safety and security. It is made by bonding two panes with the help of a plastic layer. This can be either polyvinylbutyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinylacetate (EVA). This process makes it harder for break-ins and less prone to shatter into sharp shards. It also provides an extra layer of protection against the harmful UV rays of the sun that can cause fading of interior furniture and fabrics.

It is also stronger and more sound-insulating than standard annealed glasses. It is available in various colors to suit the design of the space and it is possible to add switchable interlayers that allow panels to be transparent when a small current passes through it, and opaque when it is switched off.

Laminated glass, similar to tempered glass is a durable option that requires less maintenance. It is essential to keep in mind that moisture could cause the bonding agents within the interlayer to weaken. This danger can be mitigated by keeping both the glass and the interlayer free of dirt and using mild cleaning solvents.

Laminated glass is recyclable unlike tempered glass, which is treated chemically. This is accomplished by putting the glass in an equipment that separates it from its inner film that can then be melted and used in another application. This process is a more environmentally friendly alternative to throwing away the film and glass as waste. It is also safer than using denatured alcohol or explosive liquid to melt the glass laminated.
