Insulating Glass (IGU)
Where Soundproofing Meets Energy Savings
Insulating Glass Units (IGUs) consist of two or more glass panes separated by a spacer and sealed to create an airtight unit. Typically filled with inert gases such as argon, IGUs provide excellent thermal and sound insulation, making them ideal for a variety of commercial and residential applications.
- Heat Insulation – Reduces heat transfer for energy savings.
- Temperature Management – Minimises temperature fluctuations between indoor and outdoor environments.
- Sound Insulation – Effective in reducing noise transmission.
- Energy Efficiency – Helps to lower energy bills by improving building insulation.
- Condensation Prevention – Prevents interior glass fogging and mold growth.
- Gas Filling – Enhances thermal insulation with argon gas.
| Feature | Aluminium Spacer | Super Spacer |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal Performance | Higher thermal conductivity | Low thermal conductivity, superior heat insulation |
| Energy Efficiency | Standard thermal efficiency | Superior thermal efficiency, reduces thermal bridging |
| Durability | Strong, long-lasting, and corrosion-resistant | Highly durable, resistant to seal failure and thermal stress |
| Noise Insulation | Basic noise reduction capabilities | Superior noise reduction, ideal for soundproofing applications |
| Performance | Suitable for standard energy-efficient needs | Best for high-performance thermal insulation and noise reduction |
| Design Flexibility | Can be bent to customised shapes | Typically more rigid but provides superior edge insulation |

Types of Spacer
The spacer plays a crucial role in the performance of IGUs by maintaining a consistent gap between the glass panes and improving insulation. We offer two types of spacers:
