Fire Resistant Glass Group

The Group has created a video that demonstrates how Fire Resistant Glazing performs when installed correctly. Fire-resistant glass can only achieve its optimum performance as part of a complete fire-resistant glazed system. This means that all elements of the system – such as the glazing seals, beading, fixings and frame material – must be work together to achieve the required performance, and must meet the appropriate and relevant test evidence and is installed as tested or assessed by a competent authority.

Fire resistant glass and glazing only performs if installed correctly and by competent professional installers.

The GGF Fire Resistant Glazing Group’s broad aim is to ensure that all those responsible (from architects to specifiers through to manufacturers and installers) for fire safety in buildings are well informed to make the right decisions when it comes fire safety.

The importance of Fire Resistant Glazing cannot be over-emphasized, the right products installed correctly can prevent injury, protect property and most importantly save lives.
