Celsius Glass Roofs

Due to its impressive aesthetic appeal, glass is becoming an increasingly popular choice for conservatory roofs. We are now able to offer a high-performance, "smart" glass known as Celsius. Celsius has a unique coating which enables it to keep conservatories cooler in summer (by reflecting excessive solar heat away) as well as warmer in winter (by deflecting heat from inside the home back into the property). It also offers dramtically increased sound insulation, reduced glare (thanks to a subtle blue tint) and has an easy cleaning capability as water runs off the glass taking most dirt and grime with it.

SGG Bioclean - Let Nature Do Your Dirty Work

SGG Bioclean uses UV light and rain to actively break down dirt so your windows stay cleaner for longer. Save time and money on window cleaning! Ideal for conservatories, roofs and windows.

How does it work?
SGG Bioclean harnesses the power of UV rays and rain.

STEP 1 - Photocatalytic Action
Ultra-violet rays present in day light trigger the decomposition of organic dirt and cause the surface of the glass to turn "hydrophilac".

The phenomenon of photocatalysis can take place in sunny or in cloudy weather.

STEP 2 - Hydrophilac Action
Thanks for the hydrophilac action a water film is formed when rain makes contact with the surface of the glass. This film allows the broken down dirt particles and mineral dirt to be rinsed clean away. Water quickly and uniformly evaporates leaving the glass clean and dry.

Here are some good reasons why you should choose SGG Bioclean self cleaning glass
Less frequent cleaning
Windows stay cleaner for longer
Much easier cleaning
Less dirt and grime adheres to the surface of the glass.
Save money
The cost of window cleaning is reduced.
Ideal for hard to reach areas
Such as conservatory roofs and high level glazing.

Planitherm Glass

Planitherm high performance, low-E glass. SGG Planitherm is a high performance thermally insulating glass. Double glazed units incorporating SGG Planitherm Total 1.3 offer significantly better thermal insulation performance compared to traditional hard coated low-E products:

Considerable reductions in heating bills.
Reduced condensation on the inner pane.
Environmentally friendly solution, given the lower CO2 emissions associated with reduced energy consumption.
Compliance with current Building Regulations for a wider range of frame designs.

Better thermal insulation - reducing heat loss further, saving you even more money on heating bills.

More comfortable rooms - better insulation means fewer cold spots and draughts near windows or doors.

Less condensation - the inner surface of the glass stays warmer thereby reducing the likelihood of condensation.

Less of a tint to the glass - this gives clear vision through your windows and means your curtains or Georgian Bars do not look dirty or discoloured.

More light - less tint also means more light can enter the room, making a more comfortable environment and reducing the need for extra lighting inside.

Less chance of 'haze' (dusty effect) - this effect is more common with traditional types of thermally insulating glass due to the way it is manufactured.

Environmentally friendly - less need for heating helps to reduce energy consumption.

Window energy rating - SGG Planitherm Total combines excellent thermal insulation with high solar heat gain, making it one of the most energy efficient products available under the BRFC Window Energy Rating Scheme.

Composite Doors

Our high performance fibre glass door combines superior traditional wood effect aesthetics with low maintenance technology. Fibreglass door leafs will not bow, warp, crack, splinter, dent or rust, yet retain the warmth and traditional look of real wood without the disadvantages.

Fibre glass doors are all constructed by bonding high impact, fibreglass outer skins to composite rails surrounding an inner core of very high thermally efficient insulation foam (CFC Free). The inner core also acts as a superior sound proofing agent.

Integral Blind Units

The sophisticated way to control heat, light and privacy. Choice of 8 colours - Light blue, Lemon, Peppermint, Cream; Silver, Grey, Taupe and White.
