A plain guide to the glass types that go into uPVC windows, and what each is for.
Rather than a 'best' glass, each type solves a specific problem — noise, privacy, glare, safety, or heat. Knowing which problem you have tells you which glass you need.
Work backwards from the problem: noisy road means laminated; overlooked bathroom means frosted; west-facing glare means tinted. That's how we spec it with you.
Plain, laminated (noise and security), toughened (impact strength), frosted (privacy), tinted (glare and heat), and double-glazed units (heat and noise).
Work backwards from the problem — noisy road means laminated, overlooked bathroom means frosted, west-facing glare means tinted.
