Our high-performance, low-emissivity (Low-E) glass incorporates the latest thermally insulating glass coating technology. The microscopically thin coating effectively reflects long-wave heat radiation into a room, minimising heat loss while maximising natural light and the retention of solar heat.
What is Double Glazing?
Double glazing comprises two panes of glass separated by a gap of air or an inert gas like Argon. The gap is an insulating layer, reducing heat loss and making the unit more energy-efficient.
Our 28mm thick double glazing can be installed within a wide range of windows, including casement, tilt and turn windows or sliding sash frames. Double glazing is also suitable for composite doors, uPVC sliding patios and french doors.
