Local experts who help you get it right

Selecting glass involves more than choosing a thickness or placing an order. Performance requirements, dimensions, processing and the intended application all need consideration.

Our experienced sales and estimating team helps you clarify your specification, explore suitable products and obtain a clear quotation. With ongoing staff training and access to dedicated Fire Glass technical support, we provide practical advice to help you make informed decisions.

For fire-rated glazing, we can help you understand the relevant system requirements and supporting test evidence.

Fire-resistant glass must only be used as part of an appropriately approved glazing system.
