Glass Options for uPVC Windows

The glass matters as much as the frame. Here are the glass options for uPVC windows and what each is for.

Your glass options

Look for this

  • Clear float glass — standard, maximum light
  • Frosted/obscure — privacy for bathrooms
  • Tinted — cuts glare and heat on sunny sides
  • Toughened — safety glass that resists breakage
  • Laminated — safety and sound reduction
  • Double glazing — two panes for heat and noise
