Glass can be used to create building interiors which connect occupants with the external environment, combining unbroken views of the surrounding nature and high level of natural light with the comfort and safety of the internal environment.

Its expertise in glass compositions and coatings is applied to the manufacture of products which keep heat in or out of buildings and transport. Its understanding of the physics of glass is applied to make products, many of complex shape, which are strong, durable and optically excellent.

Pilkington Profilit™ is energy-efficient, provides excellent sound reduction and is one of the most cost-efficient glass wall systems available. It can be single or double shelled.

Our glass system based on Pilkington Profilit™ channel glass is developed for use in glass façades, walls or roofs, and also for internal glazing applications.

It meets worldwide safety standards for glass subjected to accidental human impact at the highest level of severity. Wherever the benefits of ordinary glass need to be combined with extra strength, safety or heat resistance, Pilkington Toughened Glass can offer a complete and proven solution.

There are numerous structural glass systems offered by various suppliers that open up vast possibilities for architects, allowing them to create a complete glass envelope for buildings with frameless façades on any plane.

Glass can be used as a floor panel or stair tread and even provide fire protection. Safety is critical when glass is to be used in these situations and the Pilkington technical advisory service can help with calculations for the glass thickness and construction.

NSG Group continues to develop and invest in leading edge glass shaping and fabricating technology. NSG Group is a market and technology leader in glazing systems.

When the glass breaks, the core releases tensile energy resulting in the formation of small, safer glass particles. Toughened glass is used in safety glazing in buildings.

These systems offer architects previously unimaginable flexibility to create buildings that appear to have been constructed using almost nothing but glass, and can offer a visually-striking alternative to traditional brick, timber or steel-reinforced concrete.
