When architectural safety meets design aesthetics, compromise is never the best answer. Today, with increasingly strict global building codes, traditional firewalls not only block fire but also block light and vision. Ordinary glass, however, is vulnerable in the face of fierce flames. Fire rated glass for 1 hour (60 minutes),1.5 hours (90 minutes), and 2 hours (120 minutes) - these three core protection grades are becoming the smart choice for balancing safety and design in modern buildings with their precise fire resistance, excellent heat insulation performance, and transparent visual experience, meeting the protection needs of different critical areas.

Fire-resistant glass is a special type of glass that can maintain its integrity and heat insulation in the prescribed fire resistance test. Its main function in fire prevention is to control the spread of fire or block smoke. There are significant differences between fire-resistant glass of heat-insulating type and ordinary type, which are mainly reflected in performance, application and price, etc.

The way fire-resistant glass achieves its fire resistance limit through a multi-layer structure depends mainly on its special construction and material selection.

Common fire-resistant glass can be divided into the following five types according to different processes:

A fire-resistant glass vision panel is a small glazed section within a fire-rated door, designed to allow visibility while maintaining fire integrity and insulation. These panels are essential in commercial buildings, hospitals, offices, and schools, where safety and monitoring are crucial.
