21st century glass technology into aesthetically appropriate double glazed units

5 year guarantee on all heritage sealed units

Aesthetically appropriate Heritage

Incorporate 21st Century glass technology into aesthetically appropriate double glazed units for traditional and historic or listed properties. It’s an issue our industry has grappled with for decades and something highlighted by the GGF who draw attention to the lack of specific test evidence available to date for IGUs constructed with narrow cavities and reduced sightlines.

With an 8.5mm sightline, it is the perfect option for those seeking a low sightline, alongside units that are made to the highest quality. Available in spacer sizes of 4mm, 6mm and 8mm in either dark brown or silver with white also available in 6mm and 8mm versions.
