Commercial glass designs that create a stunning workplace

It's amazing how much impact commercial glass can have on a business. It can affect how the business is perceived externally, and how it operates internally.

Commercial glass can also affect the thermal performance of a building, either lowering power bills or sending them skyrocketing. So it's important to choose glass supplies carefully and get the right advice.

Making glass work for you

Commercial glass is a versatile material that can benefit your premises in numerous ways, including aesthetics (both internal and external), acoustics, thermal performance, light and safety.

A glazier will discuss your glass supplies and options with you and use experience and knowledge to choose the most appropriate option for your workplace.

Enhance natural light

Glass - whether clear, coloured or tinted - looks spectacular on the outside of buildings. And for those working inside, it allows them to feel in touch with the external environment. 

Wide glass windows permit light to flood the interior of a building, which makes people feel good and lets other aesthetic features, from artwork to furniture, be shown in their best light.    

Sound-proofing glass

If your business is located near a busy road or other noisy area, well-chosen glass can help to create a quieter working environment. Double glazing on external windows will minimise the intrusion of noise, but still allow people to see out, meaning better concentration for your staff.

Temperature control 

Glass can have a major impact on how much heat and cold is allowed in and out of a room. Commercial glass tinted with spectrally selective tint can let the cool light in and keep out hot light in summer, and do the reverse in winter. 

Business owners can even save as much as 60% on their energy bills by using the correct commercial glass for their premises.

Focusing on safety

Improve safety within your business by having a glazier install toughened or laminated glass in high-traffic areas. This means that if an accident occurs, the risk of injury to your staff will be reduced.

Choosing the right glass 

Installing the wrong glass can cause long-term headaches. But having a good glazier who installs the right glass will help ensure that:

• interior spaces are light and pleasant for your workers
• the exterior appearance of your premises is enhanced
• interior fittings are displayed in their best light
• exterior noise is reduced
• the building is insulated, meaning power bills are kept low.

Seeing the light

Using the right glass not only creates a brighter, more pleasing environment for staff, it can also help minimise external heating and noise. So talk to a glazier today and discover how choosing the right commercial glass can help your premises to shine.
