The beauty, practicality and durability of glass has made it indispensable in construction projects for many centuries. More recent advances have multiplied the purposes to which it can be put, making it one of the most versatile materials in common use, as Susan Sinden, Commercial Manager of ESG Group, explains.

As industry leaders in prefabricated balconies backed by the brand promise to be rigid, ready and right, Sapphire has overcome challenges posed by a new residential project in one of London’s most notable suburbs.

This year, the team at ESG used their expertise to devise a revolutionary new product in the form of ESG Pyrotech BSafe.

AGC Glass UK and OnLevel UK are pleased to announce that Stratobel Strong laminated safety glass is now certified in OnLevel’s frameless balustrade systems TL6020, TL3020 and Skyforce Juliet balcony for loads up to 0.74kN.

Why do people like glass balustrades? Because they’re stylish, easy to maintain, bring a sense of airiness and space, and, most of all, let in natural light and make the most of scenic views.

As temperatures rise and the amount of daylight increases each day, designers and homeowners alike start to turn their attention to the great outdoors. The first waft of freshly cut grass in the air often signals the start of outdoor preparations and our desire to get our gardens looking great for outdoor living.

Toughened laminated glass has, quite literally, different layers which help to make it a first choice for architects, shopfitters, partitioners and balustrade suppliers, as Susan Sinden, Commercial Manager for ESG Group Ltd, explains.

An experienced builder and roofing contractor has made use of some 300 standard and tapered Marmox Multiboards to complete a complex refurbishment of a large, top floor balcony on an apartment building in North London.

The Synergised™ aluminium decking system is the latest offering in F.H. Brundle’s extensive product range.
