Suncool(tm) Glass

Pilkington Suncool(tm) glass assists in minimise solar heat gain and control glare, particularly in hot climates. Its coating is designed to allow short-wave solar radiation to reflect while allowing longer waves (generated from heating, lighting, and the buildings' inhabitants) to pass through. This balances solar control with high levels of natural lighting.

The neutral blue SN 70/35 type offers superior solar protection and has low internal reflections and excellent light transmission – perfect for large areas. This allows the most amount of natural light to be absorbed into buildings, while cutting down on the need for artificial lighting. This helps save energy and money both in the heating and cooling of buildings throughout the year.

The glass was used to replace 380m2 of windowspanes of Ridge Primary School, Gig Mill Primary School and Dudley Primary Schools, which are located in West Midlands. This included the assembly hall, entrance corridors offices and ICT Suites, as well as the nursery, corridors, and Conservatory Window Glass Replacement restrooms.

Toughened Safety Glass

Toughened glass (also known as safety glass or tempered glass) is between four and five times more durable than standard glass of the same thickness. It is created by heating annealed glass to extremely high temperatures and then quickly cooling it down, which strengthens its structure and makes it more resistant to heat and impact damage. When glass is broken 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 is suitable to upgrade existing doors and windows or making new ones. This type of glass can be used for areas that require greater durability or thermal resistance, such as conservatory door repairs roofing, glass splashbacks, shower doors, or as tabletops and shelves in kitchens and bathrooms. It is also used extensively in commercial buildings as glass wall panels, defibrillator equipment, access doors, as well as staircase balustrades.

When installing new windows and doors, it is important to think about the type of glass that will be used on 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.

A second benefit of using glasses that are toughened is that they can reduce condensation and dampness in your home. This is because the glass is able to absorb the moisture in the air before it escapes through the frame into the room.

Toughened glass is also an excellent alternative for doors and windows in order to minimize noise that comes from the outside. This is due to it producing an acoustic sound when broken, which is quieter than the shattering and cracking of regular glass.

Leaded Glass

Leaded glass is an elegant option to enhance the look of your conservatory. Its beauty is a great way to enhance natural light and creates an inviting space you can enjoy all year round.

Our clear panels let in more natural light while our double-glazed insulated options can reduce noise and offer energy savings.

When working with leaded glass we begin by creating a detailed pattern that will guide the cutting of individual pieces of glass. The glass is then cut using various tools such as a glass cutter and running or breaking pliers. The glass pieces are then fit into a lead came which is a piece of metal that keeps the window in position. The lead came is cut to suit any design and can be decorated with intricate details like beveled edges or textures.

The finished product is then connected to create an extremely stable, secure window. It is crucial to make use of solder with a melting point similar to the alloy used in the lead came and glass when the window was first designed. It is possible to damage the delicate leadwork and damage the integrity the window if you are not careful.

Over time, your leaded glass can oxidize, so it is essential to maintain the glass by regularly applying patina oil. This will slow down the oxidisation and prevent the window from being damaged.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass is a popular choice for upvc conservatory roof repairs near me windows as it is safe and secure at home. It is created by gluing two glass panes using a plastic interlayer which can be either polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl Acetate (EVA). This process makes it less prone for break-ins and less prone to shatter into sharp shards. It also provides an additional layer of protection against the UV rays of the sun, which can cause furniture and fabrics to fade.

It is also more durable than normal annealed glass and has excellent sound-insulation characteristics. It can be made in various colors to suit the design of the space and it is possible to add interlayers that can be switched to allow the panel to be transparent when a small amount of current passes through it, and opaque when it is turned off.

Like laminated glass that is tempered, it is a durable option that requires less maintenance than other types of windows. However, it is important to remember that the interlayer could separate from the glass if moisture causes bonding agents to weaken. This risk can be minimized by keeping both the glass and the interlayer clean and using mild cleaning solvents.

In contrast to tempered glass, which is treated with chemicals and chemicals, laminated glass is able to be reused. This is accomplished by putting the glass into an equipment that separates it from its film inside and then melts it and used in another application. This is better for the environment rather than throwing the film and glass away. It is also safer than using denatured alcohol or flame-resistant liquid to melt the glass that has been laminated.
