How the Pyrobel fire glass works:
Pyrobel® and Pyrobelite® is a laminated glass that is assembled with clear intumescent interlayers that meet the Integrity and Low Radiation criteria (EW) or the Integrity and Insulation criteria (EI). In the event of a fire, the interlayers will expand and transform themselves into a rigid, opaque and heat-absorbing fire shield. The glass provides a proven resistance to fire, physically protecting against flames and smoke. It also controls heat transfer through conduction, radiation and convection.
Pyrobel® and Pyrobelite® can be used with other products to deliver varying functions, including energy efficiency (Low-emissivity, solar control/gain), security measures, decorative effects (sandblasting) and also integrated blinds within the fire-rated units.
