The Consett-based manufacturer Romag can now process a fire resistant clear glass range supported by cutting, shaping, grinding and polishing expertise at its County Durham factory.
For the fire door and bespoke architectural markets, the multi-layer laminate range features BS EN 1634-1:2008 and BS 476-22:1987 standard accredited glass.
Products are compliant with the international E (integrity), EW (radiation control) and EI (insulation) standards as a physical barrier against flames, hot toxic gases and smoke besides radiated heat and surface temperature control for up to two hours’ protection.
Included in the range is a slim option, featuring two panes of glass separated by a transparent intumescent interlayer, for use with fire doors and partition, fire exit corridors and fire exit staircases.
The fire resistant glass is available as a single glazed laminate and double glazed option to provide enhanced thermal insulation, acoustic insulation and even bullet and physical attack resistance properties
The makers add that the fire glass combines properties with strength for bespoke safety and security fire door applications in museums, galleries and high end retail stores, as well industrial buildings and commercial offices.
Romag has supplied safety and security glass for projects in critical national infrastructure, transportation, government buildings, MoD and leisure facilities.
