Vacuum Insulated Glass (VIG)
What is Vacuum Insulated Glass?
Vacuum Insulated Glass (VIG) uses two panes of glass separated by a microscopic vacuum gap instead of air or argon gas.
The Result?
Total thickness is as thin as 6 – 10mm
Thermal Performance is comparable to triple glazing
No bulky IGU required
Why It’s Ideal for Historic Buildings & Steel Windows
Preserves Original Frames
Fits narrow historical steel or wood glazing pockets without modifying original profiles
Improves Energy Efficiency
Significantly reduces heat loss while maintaining original sightlines.
Enhances Comfort
Warmer interior glass surfaces help reduce condensation on steel frames
Improves Sound Control
The vacuum cavity reduces outside noise – ideal for urban settings
Perfect for…
Landmark & Historic Restorations
Pre-war Steel Window Upgrades
High-End Residential Retrofits
Commercial Buildings Needing Performance Without Visual Compromise
The Advantage
The energy performance of modern triple glazing – installed inside your window or integrated into a hybrid system for enhanced performance
