In today’s fast-paced working environment, we’re constantly looking for new ways to add efficiency and comfort to the workplace.
This is where our new innovation, glow-heated glass, comes in. Glow-heated glass is a cutting-edge solution to modern heating. As the first UK company to offer this, our glow-glass can be incorporated into bi-folding doors and skylights.
Stick with us to discover why glow-heated glass is ideal for modern offices and commercial spaces. From its sleek design to cost savings, the future of heating starts here.

1. Space-Saving Heating Solution
Traditional heating systems, like radiators, require wall and floor space, which can clash with an office’s sleek and sophisticated appearance.
Glow-heated glass saves valuable office space, making it ideal for minimalistic or small workspaces. This glass can be used for bi-folding doors, windows, and skylights, providing an unobstructed and versatile heating solution.
Now, you can enjoy an open and clutter-free office, providing more space for desks or filing cabinets.
2. Increased Employee Comfort and Productivity
No one wants to work in a cold office. Not only does this dampen employees’ spirits, but it also has a knock-on effect on productivity.
Glow-heated glass is designed with conductive coatings made from metallic oxides. These coatings act as resistive elements when an electrical current is applied to the glass, producing radiant heat.
Radiators use the convention method, which causes warm air to rise and often distributes this air unevenly. Instead of just heating the space around you like traditional heating systems, radiant heat provides direct warmth to surrounding objects and people.
This limits hot and cold spots, keeping your employees warm and comfortable all day long.
3. Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
Many workplace environments spend thousands of pounds on heating every year. With rising energy costs and an increasing need for eco-friendly solutions, many businesses are now under pressure to switch to sustainable and affordable heating systems.
By switching to glow-glass, you can save a great amount of money annually on heating. The glass serves a dual purpose, acting as a window or door whilst keeping the workspace warm with less energy input. If you were to install a glow-glass bi-fold door, this would cost you around 9p an hour to heat, based on an electricity cost of 25p/kWh.
Additionally, glow-heated glass systems can be more precisely controlled, especially when integrated into smart office environments. This glass also includes thermostatic controls, which automatically adjust based on the room’s needs, lowering energy consumption and reducing your carbon footprint.
4. Health and Hygiene Benefits
Radiators and ducts can often accumulate dust and allergens, circulating them throughout the office. This can potentially affect employees with respiratory sensitivities and lead to the spread of bacteria, causing illness.
By switching to glow-heated glass, you can enjoy a clean, dust-free heating option that doesn’t require air movement to distribute heat. This contributes to better indoor air quality, leading to a healthier work environment.
Furthermore, this glass reduces condensation, preventing dampness and mould.
5. Low Maintenance and Durability
The simplistic design of glow glass means that it doesn’t have to rely on mechanical parts: fans, pumps, or filters. This minimises the risk of mechanical failure and, therefore, leads to fewer maintenance requirements.
Designed with toughened or laminated glass, our glow glass is highly resistant to thermal expansion, impact, and temperature fluctuations. Plus, it’s up to five times stronger than standard glass!
Since the system produces less heat, it is less stressed, ensuring that the glass maintains its performance over time.
