This enables us to offer products with the lowest U-values (the rate of heat loss from the building) and also have lower shading coefficients.

Suncool(tm) Glass

Pilkington Suncool (tm) Glass helps to reduce solar heat gain and reduce the glare of hot climates. Its coating is designed to reflect short wave solar radiation while allowing the long waves (generated by lighting, heating and the building's occupants) to pass through the glass unhindered. This balances solar control with high levels of natural light.

The neutral blue SN 70/35 type provides superior solar protection and has low internal reflections, and superior light transmission – perfect for large areas. This allows the maximum amount of natural light to enter the building, while decreasing artificial lighting. This helps save energy and money on the cooling and heating of buildings throughout the year.

We used this glass to replace 380m2 of windowpanes at the Ridge Primary School and Gig Mill Primary Schools in Dudley, West Midlands. This included the hall for assembly, the entrance corridors offices, corridors and ICT suites - as well as the nursery, toilets and corridors. The new glass has allowed the schools to maintain an appropriate temperature and save money on cooling and energy costs.

The patented U-channel design of the Intercept spacer reduces thermal conductivity and provides greater seal durability, resulting in exceptional energy savings - and assisting in making your Maryland sunroom feel comfortable all throughout the year.

Toughened Safety Glass

Toughened glass, also known as tempered glass or safety glass is between four and five times stronger than normal glass of the same thickness. It is created by heating annealed glasses to high temperatures and then cooling them down quickly. This makes the structure stronger and makes the glass more resistant to heat damage and impacts. When shattered the toughened glass breaks up into small, blunt cube-shaped pieces that are less likely to cause injury than the sharp shards that are typical of glass.

This method can be used to improve existing windows and doors or creating new ones. This type of glass is ideal for areas that require more durability or resistance to thermal stress, like conservatory repairers roofs glass shower doors and splashbacks, as well for shelves and tabletops in bathrooms and kitchens. It is also widely utilized in commercial buildings for glass wall panels, defibrillator equipment access doors, as well as stair balustrades.

It is essential to take into consideration the type of glass that is used on the walls and masonry surrounding the new windows and doors. This will reduce the amount of energy lost through the glass, and also eliminates the need to install expensive insulation.

Another benefit of using toughened glass is that it helps reduce damp and condensation inside your home. This is due to the fact that toughened glass can absorb moisture from the air and stop it from escaping through the frame and into the room.

We begin by creating the pattern that will help us in cutting the glass. Glass is cut with a variety of tools, such as a breaking or running plier and a glass cutter. The glass pieces will then be fitted into a lead come which is a metallic strip that holds the window in place. The lead came can be shaped to suit any design and can be decorated with intricate details such as beveled edges, or even textures.

The finished product is soldered together to create a stable secure, safe window. It is important to only make use of a solder that has an melting point that is similar to the alloy used in the lead glass and came when the window was originally created.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass is a very popular choice for conservatory windows because it offers safety and security at home.

This makes it more difficult to break and less likely for the glass to break into sharp pieces. It also provides an extra layer of protection from sun's damaging UV rays which can cause fading to fabrics and furniture.

It is also more durable and sound-proof than regular annealed glasses. It can be produced in many colors to fit the style of the space. It is possible to add switchable interlayers that allow a panel to be clear when a tiny current flows through it, and opaque once it is shut off.

Laminated glazing, like glass that is tempered, is a long-lasting choice that requires less maintenance. However it is essential to remember that the interlayer could separate from the glass if moisture causes bonding agents to weaken. The risk of this is reduced by keeping the glass and interlayer in good condition by using only mild cleaning solvents and avoiding abrasions and excessive heating.

Unlike tempered glass, which is treated with chemicals the laminated glass can be reused. This is done by putting glass into a machine that separates the outer film from glass. The inner film can then be melting and used in another application. This is a better choice for the environment rather than throwing away the film and glass. It is also more secure than using denatured alcohol or a flame-resistant liquid to melt the glass laminated.
