The Window Energy Ratings Scheme is based on a scale of A+ through to G, with A+ rated windows being the most energy-efficient. Public and Commercial Buildings Window Energy Ratings are not applicable for use in public or commercial buildings where there may be both heating and cooling requirements.

For replacement windows, doors and rooflights in existing dwellings, the following standards have been introduced: For timber windows, a maximum U-value of 1.6 W/m 2 K or WER band C is permissible until 14 th June 2023. From 15 th June 2023, the full standard of a maximum U-value of 1.4 W/m 2 K or WER band B applies.

Range Overview. A significant step in the glass industry was made with the development of Pilkington Activ™, the first dual-action self-cleaning glass.The unique dual-action of the Pilkington Activ™ coating uses the forces of nature to help keep the glass free from dirt, giving not only the practical benefit of less cleaning, but also clearer, better-looking windows.

Toughened glass achieves its impact resistance by having the strength increased by a factor of upto 5 and when it breaks it collapses into small relatively harmless particles. Laminated glass is no stronger than the annealed glass it is formed from but the interlayer bonds the panes together.

Jewellers windows and screens in vulnerable reception areas are often locations requiring protection above and beyond that offered by impact resistant glass classified by BS6206 or BS EN 12600. The British Standard BS5544 provided a anti bandit solution where glass combined with suitable framing could be said to meet the classification.

The dimensions of the glass width and height The angle of glazing The number of supported edges of the glass The design wind load is derived from the basic wind speed and factors that affect the way wind imparts load to the building. The load can be wind pressure or more often suction.
