Why Choose Acrylic Double Glazing?

Unlike traditional acrylic double glazing, acrylic is 96% optically clear and will allow more light into your home. It is also guaranteed to last for 10 years against UV degradation and is resistant to chemicals, making it a great choice for any application where you require durability and safety.

Another reason to consider acrylic is its resistance to cracking. This can be extremely beneficial when large underwater windows are being craned into position. Acrylic’s crack resistance means that it flexes rather than breaks. This makes it ideal for use in deep sea submarine windows where human lives are at risk.

Transparent Innovation: The Advantages of Acrylic Double Glazing for Modern Homes

Acrylic can be made to a wide range of sizes and shapes, which is ideal for window framing. It is also very easy to work with, which can help you achieve your desired look for your frames. Acrylic is also a lighter alternative to glass, which can be very helpful when handling heavy frames. This can be a crucial factor when hanging large pieces of art in high traffic areas where accidental knocks or scrapes might happen.

Our ecoGlaze secondary glazing kit incorporates clear Perspex acrylic (also known by trademarks such as Lucite, Altuglas, or Plexiglass) which is fitted to an existing window frame and sealed with magnetic brown tape. This creates an optimal still air space to make your house warmer in winter and cooler in summer, without the need for expensive replacement windows. It can be fitted to awning windows, double-hung sash windows or sliding windows and doors. It can even be adapted to suit heritage and listed properties without affecting the original design of your windows.
