How smart use of glazing can help residential developers to create low-energy homes without compromising on daylight levels or thermal comfort.

Natural light plays a major role in today’s modern design. Glass not only bridges the gap between the outdoors and indoors, enhancing energy conservation and occupant well-being, but also meets critical performance standards such as fire safety. Pilkington Fire-resistant Glass, a trusted choice for over 45 years, exemplifies how safety and aesthetics can seamlessly coexist.

Sound insulation is becoming more and more important for homeowners. They are increasingly looking to block out everything from traffic noise to barking dogs, or perhaps the neighbour’s new drum kit. Landlords and developers are also acknowledging the value of sound insulation in the home, especially for higher-end properties.

The title might be a slight giveaway, but it’s true – glass really can have a great impact on health and well-being.
