Reduction of noise is one of the key issues for modern architecture. Therefore, construction materials are selected based on their soundproofing and sound absorbing features, including other basic functions, like fire-resistant glass. POLFLAM® fire-resistant glass has perfect soundproofing parameters, including those recommended for areas of particular noise load.
Only a year ago was a modern technological line launched in the newly built hall, while another production facility is about to open in Runów, equipped with the state-of-the-art machinery for production of fire-resistant glass. The potential of the new facility will allow POLFLAM to double its production capacity.
Contemporary architecture loves larger and larger-size glass. For high fire-resistance class glazings, however, their weight is a problem.
Low weight of POLFLAM glass allows for large-dimension panes to be made which do not provide excessive load on the structure of the building.
Modern architecture means glass. And most of this is fire-resistant glass, where, thanks to still more technologically advanced products being launched, glazed walls can be applied to more and more demanding structures. Ceilings and stairs are a good example of such application.
Read more…In April this year, in a notified testing institute, a fire-resistance test has been carried out of POLFLAM BR glass, class EI 120, designed for the frameless system.
Another technology barrier has been broken through. The BR EI 120 glass is a new product of POLFLAM brand with truly attractive parameters.
On May, 23, starts the FIT Show 2017– an annual meeting of manufacturers and fitters of glass, windows and glazed systems applied in the building industry. Its status is growing year by year, not only on the British market. This year, the Show is going to be held in a new location: a modern National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham.
At the Show, we will, first of all, present large-size fire-resistant POLFLAM glass to be installed in frameless systems. We shall also show our new product: fire-resistant glass for use in ceilings and stairs, the load-bearing capacity being as much as 5 kN/m2. We have prepared a set of exhibits with POLFLAM glass in all the EI classes: from 30 to 180.
See you in Birmingham!

POLFLAM® brand is firmly positioning itself within the exclusive group of facade glass producers. And this is due to POLFLAM’s long years’ experience in the production of fire-resistant glass of record-large dimensions and to the product’s unique features. What are the decisive parameters in this case and why is the size so important for facade glazing?
