Ceramic Spandrels

dualseal Ceramic Spandrels are an opaque coloured glass, produced by applying a uniform coating of enamel to one side of the glass. The latest range of enamels used do not contain any dangerous heavy metals.

The enamel is fired at a high temperature in order to fuse permanently with the glass surface, giving the product exceptional durability.

Acoustic

Sound Control

Noise pollution is a serious issue, particularly when living in an area with high levels of air traffic or busy roads. Too much noise can be damaging to health (increased stress, disrupted sleep) and can hinder academic learning and concentration.

dualseal acoustic insulating glazing can help keep noise outside so you can enjoy your living and work space in peace and quiet.

Function

Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB). A comfortable sound level is around 35dB in daytime and 30dB at night.

Acoustically, insulating glass cuts out excess sound and reduces the harmful effects of noise and is particularly effective in buildings near to high streets, urban traffic, motorways, train stations and airports.

The acoustic glass within a busy double-glazed unit comprises a special interlayer which acts as a dampening core to prevent sound frequencies from vibrating from one pane of glass to the other. This absorbs and weakens sound energy, helping to act as a barrier to noise.

Benefits

Acoustic insulation is very important to create a space where sound does not hinder concentration and does not add to the day-to-day stresses experienced at work.

You can keep the workplace at a sensible noise level so you are able to create an environment with less outside influences creating a more tranquil space.

Reduce impact noise, particularly on roof lanterns when it is raining.

Acoustic glass can be combined with many other products for multi-functional glazing, such as thermal insulation, solar control, low-maintenance and decorative glass.


Have you tried the Glass dBstation app from Saint-Gobain? Thanks to this acoustic simulator from Saint-Gobain Glass, you can easily determine the best performing glazing for your windows according to the noise pollution of your surrounding environment.

Compatibility: Requires iOS 4.0 or later.

Decorative

Ceramic Designs

Dualseal silk screen glass offers aesthetic solutions for architectural design with standard or specially commissioned designs being available. This variation in designs provide options for privacy, obscuration and solar control.

Standard patterns can be viewed using the adjacent page link view but purpose made designs are available on request and are costed individually. The designs can be applied to the whole panel or in selected areas to suit the application.

With increased ceramic coverage on the glass, screen printing helps to control heat and light transmission. The shading coefficient of clear and body tinted glass is reduced, thus allowing greater flexibility of choice and design.

Benefits

  • Wide range of visual effects available
  • No discolouration by internal condensation or deposit of volatiles
  • Durable
  • Toughened to BS EN 12150: BS EN 12600 Impact Classification 1(C)3 (minimum)
  • Resists corrosion and chemical attack
  • Easy to install with minimal maintenace

Vanceva®

Without light – colour would not exist. Therefore it is perfect that modern day trends continue to bring colour into glass. Often a path for natural daylight, today’s windows offer architects and designers a dynamic palette on which to display colour

No longer reserved for paint and wall coverings, architects and designers continue to push the envelope, developing colour design methods for every glazing application. When exploring light, form and space in the design process, glass can be the answer for all three considerations with the addition of Vanceva© colours.

New hospitals, living rooms and urban facades can showcase colour in the glazing design. Colour and light are used not only to define space, but to stimulate and even inspire those who inhabit it.

Please contact our technical department to guide you through the colour selection process and finalise your requirements.

ScreenLine Blinds

ScreenLine is a system of blinds, which are assembled and permanently sealed within the double-glazing cavity.

Once sealed in this totally dust free environment, the blinds require no cleaning, always appear new and are protected from damage unlike external blind systems. Benefits also include enhanced sun shading features and it also enhances the u-value of a sealed unit.
