We take pride in forging strong partnerships with our customers, delivering not only superior products but also exceptional service and support.

What Are Sealed Units for Double Glazing?

Sealed units for double glazing consist of two glass panes separated by a spacer bar, creating an insulating air or gas-filled space between them. This design offers superior thermal insulation, soundproofing, and security compared to single-glazed units, making them a preferred choice for both residential and commercial applications.

Key Features of Our Sealed Glass Units

When choosing a supplier for sealed units for double glazing, double glazing manufacturers should consider several critical factors to ensure they receive the highest quality products. Here’s what sets Glasscraft apart:

Superior Thermal Insulation

Our sealed glass units are designed to provide excellent thermal insulation. This is achieved through the use of high-performance coatings and insulating gases. Our units can significantly reduce heat loss in the winter and keep interiors cool in the summer, contributing to energy efficiency and cost savings for end-users.

Enhanced Sound Insulation

Noise reduction is a crucial aspect of modern double glazing. Our sealed glass units are engineered to provide superior sound insulation, making them ideal for properties located in noisy environments. The air or gas-filled space between the panes acts as a barrier to sound, ensuring a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment.

High-Quality Materials

At Glasscraft, we use only the finest materials to manufacture our sealed glass units. From high-quality glass panes to durable spacer bars and superior sealing compounds, every component is selected for its performance and longevity. This ensures that our units not only meet but exceed industry standards.

A ‘typical’ double glazed unit

We understand that every double glazing manufacturer has unique requirements. That’s why we offer a range of customisable options for our sealed glass units, allowing you to tailor each unit to your specific needs.

Glass thicknesses

Our units can be produced with various glass thicknesses to suit different applications. Thicker glass provides better sound insulation and added security, which is particularly beneficial for high-traffic or high-risk areas.

Performance coatings

We offer a variety of performance coatings to enhance the functionality of our sealed glass units:

  • Low-Emissivity (Low-E) Coatings: Improve thermal efficiency by reflecting heat back into the room.
  • Solar Control Coatings: Reduce heat gain from the sun, keeping interiors cooler.
  • Anti-Reflective and Self-Cleaning Coatings: Enhance clarity and reduce maintenance.

Safety glass

Safety is a top priority in double glazing. Our sealed glass units can include toughened or laminated glass to provide enhanced safety and security. Toughened glass is heat-treated to increase its strength, while laminated glass consists of multiple layers bonded together, preventing shattering.

Spacer bar types

The type of spacer bar used can significantly affect the thermal performance of the unit. We offer several options, including:

  • Aluminium Spacers: A cost-effective choice with good structural integrity.
  • Warm Edge Spacers: Made from insulating materials to reduce thermal bridging and improve energy efficiency.

Gas fill types

The insulating space in our sealed glass units can be filled with different types of gas to enhance thermal performance:

  • Air: The standard choice for most units.
  • Argon: Provides better insulation than air, reducing heat transfer.
  • Krypton: Offers superior insulation for high-performance applications.
