Standard 4/20/4Two 4 mm panes, Low-E coated, with an argon-filled gap of 20 mm. The everyday choice for windows and doors.

Laminated / acoustic 4/16/6.8Two 3 mm sheets bonded to a tough clear interlayer. If it breaks it holds together, and the acoustic interlayer soaks up noise from busy roads.

Solar control 4/20/4A coating on the outer pane reflects much of the sun's heat before it gets in. For south-facing glass, roofs and extensions.
ArgonArgonLow-Ecoating4124124OutsideInside36 mm unit
Triple glazed 4/12/4/12/4Three panes, two Low-E coatings and two argon gaps for the lowest heat loss. It is the heaviest unit, so the frame has to be built to carry it.
In every unit
Warm edge spacer
The bar that holds the panes apart around the edge. It is made from a low-conducting composite instead of aluminium, so the edge of the glass stays warmer, with less heat loss and less condensation. It is filled with desiccant, which soaks up any moisture sealed inside so the unit never mists.
Sealant
The black outer seal bonds the panes and spacer into one unit, keeps the argon in and keeps moisture out.
Low-E coating
An invisible metal-oxide layer on the inside face of the glass that reflects heat back into the room.

We specify the optimal glass configuration for each project based on thermal performance, acoustic requirements and Building Regulations compliance.
