Insulight™ glazing units are available in a wide choice of glass thicknesses and glass types. They incorporate a specially designed high quality continuous rolled aluminium, steel or warm edge spacer options to separate the glass. These are available in a range of colours and varying widths as well as for specialist applications containing desiccant to keep the air or gas in the unit dry for optimum performance.
The perimeter of the IGU is hermetically sealed with a two part system made up of butyl and a silicone or polysulphide seal. The seal can withstand a wide range of temperatures and silicone has high resistance to UV rays. This means the units can be used with confidence for cladding panels, silicone structural glazing and roof glazing in addition to conventional glazing.
