Frameless fire resistant glazing now available in the Middle East

Architects can now design fire resistant glazing without the need for mullions. Clear Run, C3S Securiglass' frameless butt jointed system uses insulated fire resistant glass, offering both 30 and 60 minutes integrity and insulation.

Non-fire butt jointed systems have been used for many years, now the Clear Run system gives the architect the freedom to exploit the clean look of glass to maximum effect where the design demands it.

To complement the stylish Clear Run system, a near frameless door with the same fire resistant properties has been developed.

As a leading UK supplier of glass systems to architects and specifiers, C3S Securiglass supplies Clear Run to the Middle East, which has already proven to be a very successful in Europe and the Far East.

The C3S Securiglass R&D programme continuously tests glass in larger and wider panels so it can meet the ever-increasing demands of the architectural market place. The company already supplies both 30 and 60 minutes integrity and insulation in some of the largest
unframed glass panels of fire resistant glass in the world.

The perimeter framework is available in powder coated, stainless steel mirror finish or if required, timber. Recent testing of a new frameless door product has resulted in remarkable success for a double leaf, double swing 60/60 fire door.
