Glass options
Six ways to glaze a window.
More than a view to the outside, glass drives your home's efficiency, comfort, security and look. We match the glazing to each opening, because every window doesn't need the same spec.
Double glazing
Two panes with an insulating argon gap for superior thermal performance. Less heat lost in winter, less gained in summer, so you get lower running costs and a more comfortable home all year.
Low-E glass
A microscopically thin low-emissivity coating reflects heat back into the room in winter and blocks solar gain in summer, while letting daylight straight through. The single biggest efficiency upgrade you can make to a window.
Tinted glass
Cuts glare and solar heat gain without losing the view. Available in grey, bronze and green. Ideal for sun-facing rooms and added daytime privacy.
Laminated glass
Panes bonded with a tough interlayer for safety and security. Holds together if struck, resisting break-ins and protecting against accidental breakage. Standard where Building Code safety glazing applies.
Acoustic glass
An acoustic interlayer and optimised pane thicknesses knock down noise transmission. Made for homes near busy roads, flight paths or town centres, where you want a noticeably quieter room.
Decorative glass
Frosted, patterned and textured options for privacy and character in bathrooms, entries and stairwells. Control light and sight-lines without sacrificing the look. Custom designs available.
Energy efficiency
Efficiency starts at the glass.
Single-glazed windows bleed heat. Modern Low-E double glazing in a thermally broken frame can cut heat loss through the window by up to 73%*, one of the most effective upgrades you can make to a home.
Temperature control
Hold a steady indoor temperature through the seasons with far less heating and cooling.
Lower bills
Less energy in means real money saved on power every year for the life of the window.
Warmer, drier home
Fewer cold spots and less condensation, for a healthier home and a smaller footprint.
Window heat-loss reduction
vs. single-glazed, standard (non-thermally-broken) aluminium framing
Double glazing, standard frame~45%*
Low-E double glazing, standard frame~65%*
Low-E double glazing, thermally broken frame~73%*
