60-minute fire-resistant glass

EI60 25MM Fire-Resistant Insulating Glass | 60-Minute Integrity & Insulation

Introduction

In modern architectural design, safety cannot be compromised. Our EI60 25MM Fire-Resistant Insulating Glass is engineered to provide the highest level of protection, meeting the stringent demands of commercial, residential, and industrial buildings. This premium fire-rated glass not only acts as a barrier against flames and smoke but also critically insulates against conductive and radiant heat, ensuring safe egress and compartmentation for a full 60 minutes. It seamlessly integrates vital life safety with exceptional clarity and design flexibility.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Full EI60 Certification: Maximum Safety Assurance

   The "EI" rating is the European standard benchmark for fire-resistant glazing. 'E' stands for Integrity – the ability to prevent the passage of flames and hot gases. 'I' stands for Insulation – the ability to limit the temperature rise on the non-fire side. Our EI60 glass is rigorously tested and certified to maintain both integrity and insulation for 60 minutes, offering complete protection superior to integrity-only (E) solutions.

3. Advanced Laminated Structure: The Core of 25MM Performance

   The exceptional 25mm thickness results from a sophisticated multi-layer laminated construction. This design incorporates special transparent intumescent interlayers that, when exposed to heat, expand to form an opaque, insulating char. This char layer acts as a powerful heat shield, ensuring the temperature on the protected side remains low enough to prevent the spread of fire and allow safe touch.

   
   

4. Superior Thermal Insulation & Energy Efficiency

   Beyond fire safety, this insulating glass unit provides excellent thermal and acoustic performance. It helps in reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, contributing to lower energy costs. Its sound-damping properties also enhance occupant comfort by reducing external noise pollution, making it ideal for facades and interior partitions in noisy urban environments.

6. Architectural Aesthetics and Light Transmission

   Unlike traditional opaque fire barriers, our fire-resistant glass allows for natural light transmission, promoting open, bright, and welcoming spaces. It supports modern architectural trends towards open-plan layouts while maintaining strict safety codes, enabling the creation of safe, light-filled atriums, corridors, and room dividers.

   
   

7. Rigorous Quality and Compliance

   The product is manufactured in accordance with EN 13501-2 and tested to EN 1363-1 & EN 1364-1 standards. It carries CE marking, guaranteeing its performance for the EU market. Our quality control system ensures every panel meets the highest consistency and reliability standards.
