Pilkington Building Products UK
Architectural Glass and Fire Resistant Glazing Suppliers

Pilkington Building Products-UK manufactures a wide range of float, coated, rolled, laminated and toughened glass products as well as its own range of high performance insulating glass units including Pilkington energiKare™ - energy efficient glazing which reduces the amount of heat lost, while also allowing more energy from the sun through the window. Glass is distributed to customers, either as stock or as bespoke processed products to meet their needs, direct from St. Helens or through our network branches countrywide. The company is highly focused on quality and service, continually improving to deliver the benefits of Pilkington's technical ability and innovation to the end user. Pilkington glass products offer a wide range of properties from fire-resistance to thermal insulation and sound reduction to safety. We are constantly developing new technologies to take glass even further and our comprehensive testing regimes not only mean all our products meet the latest regulations but also that you can be sure of Pilkington quality, whatever glass you specify. To help you choose the right glass for your particular project the range is categorised by product benefit.

These include:

  • Solar Control

  • Special Applications

  • Noise Control

  • Thermal Insulation

  • Decoration

  • Safety / Security

Together with:

Self-cleaning Glass see also www.pilkington.co.uk/activ

Pilkington Activ™, the world’s first self-cleaning glass represents the very latest in glass technology. Effectively the same as conventional glass, it has a specially developed coating on the outside that has an innovative dual action. Once exposed to daylight the coating chemically reacts in two ways.

Firstly, it breaks down any ‘organic’ dirt deposits - such as bird droppings and tree sap - and secondly, rain water ‘sheets’ down the glass to wash the loosened dirt away. Available in 4, 6 and 10mm.

  • Pilkington Activ™ Range: Pilkington Activ™ Clear self-cleaning glass and, for the additional benefit of solar control, Pilkington Activ™ Blue, Pilkington Activ™ Neutral & Pilkington Activ Suncool™

  • Works even on cloudy days & during the night

  • Breaks down & loosens even heavy soiling

  • The coating will not be worn away or rubbed off & lasts the lifetime of the glass itself

  • Now available as Pilkington Planar Activ™ self-cleaning frameless structural glazing

Glass Systems see also www.pilkington.co.uk/planar

Pilkington Planar™ the world’s leading structural glass system opens up vast possibilities enabling the creation of complete glass envelopes for buildings with frameless façades on any plane. Support structures, located internally or externally, can use glass mullions, a conventional steel construction or the revolutionary Pilkington Planar™ Tension Structure design, to be as subtle or dominant as appropriate. Pilkington engineers, working with DuPont scientists have combined their leading edge technologies to develop the ultimate in strength, safety, durability and appearance in laminated structural glass and are now able to offer - the Planar™ | SentryGlas® System which is ideal for roofs.

Fire Protection see also www.pilkington.co.uk/fireresistant

A range of fire-resistant glass is available offering varying levels of protection, which is measured in terms of integrity (the time the glass remains intact in a fire) and insulation (the amount of time the glass will limit the temperature rise on the non-fireside). It should be noted that fire-resistant glass should always be specified as part of a complete glazing system, and installation carried out by specialists in order to ensure it achieves its expected fire performance.

Pilkington Pyroshield™ 2 is a monolothic wired glass that provides integrity classification for fire protection even in timber frames. This range includes Pilkington Pyroshield™ 2 Safety Clear, a clear safety option for vision areas, and Pilkington Pyroshield™ 2 Texture offering a textured non-safety option for obscuration.

Pilkington Pyrodur®, Pilkington Pyrodur® Plus (integrity with some insulation) and Pilkington Pyrostop® (integrity and insulation) comprise multi-laminated layers of float glass and clear intumescent material which produce an opaque shield on exposure to fire which limits the transmission of conductive and radiant heat.
