Our Types of Float Glass for Every Application
We offer a wide range of float glass solutions to suit various project needs. No matter what type of installation you’re looking for, we ensure the right choice for the job.
- Standard Float Glass: This is ideal for residential window installations, offering clarity and reliability for everyday use.
- Low-E Coated Glass: This option is perfect for projects that prioritise energy efficiency. Low-E coated glass reduces energy consumption, making it a great choice for both homes and commercial buildings.
- Laminated Float Glass: For commercial and industrial settings, laminated float glass offers additional safety and soundproofing. It’s commonly used in office partitions, storefronts, and other environments that require extra protection.
- Toughened Float Glass: Designed for high-impact environments, toughened glass is used in areas such as balustrades, overhead glazing, and safety-critical installations.
Glass Solutions for Residential and Commercial Installations
We supply and fit quality glass for homes and businesses, including doors, windows, partitions, and balustrades. Our work is practical, reliable, and built to suit a range of styles and spaces.
Commercial Installations: From Retail Fronts to Office Spaces
In commercial spaces, float glass must offer safety, performance, and aesthetic appeal. We offer clear glass installations that are ideal for creating shatter-resistant storefronts, as well as acoustic float glass partitions to help improve sound insulation in offices. Additionally, we provide solar-control coatings to reduce glare and improve energy efficiency in office buildings.
Industrial Installations: Built for Heavy-Duty Use
For industrial settings, float glass needs to meet the toughest demands. We provide solutions like oversized laminated float glass panels for fire-rated barriers and double-glazed units for temperature-controlled environments, such as laboratories and warehouses. For example, in a recent installation at a Birmingham logistics warehouse, we used toughened float glass for skylights, which enhanced safety, energy efficiency, and allowed natural light to flood the space.
Customised Glass Solutions for Every Project
Each project is unique, and we offer custom float glass solutions to address specific challenges. Whether you need UV-bonded glass partitions for cleanrooms or fire-resistant glazing for high-risk areas, we can provide exactly what you need to ensure your float glass installation is perfectly suited to your environment.
Float Glass Installation Process
Our process begins with a detailed site assessment to ensure that accurate measurements are taken and the right materials are selected. We use state-of-the-art tools such as hydraulic lifting systems and CNC technology for precise cutting and installation. For larger or heavier panels, we use vacuum lifters to handle and place the glass safely and securely.
