The Importance of Glazing for Commercial Properties

An essential part of designing commercial buildings is glass or window selection. Glass or Window glazing is a common choice for all commercial properties because it offers many advantages, as highlighted below:

  1. Improved Safety and Security

    Security is a top consideration for commercial buildings. Many types of glass will heighten a building's security and comply with safety regulations and codes. Enhancements can also be applied for increased security and appearance.
  2. Energy Efficiency

    Modern Commercial window glazing can be very energy efficient. Some gas-filled spaces in insulated glass units can minimize temperature transfer between the property’s interior and exterior. In simpler terms, window glazing will help the building retain heat in the winter and repel heat in the summer, reducing the dependency on heating and cooling systems.
  3. Noise Reduction

    Double Pane, Triple Pane, or Laminated Glass used in window systems can be the perfect solution to improve your commercial property's sound insulation. Due to the thickness and multiple layers of glass, it can be more efficient in absorbing noise waves, especially in buildings in high-traffic areas such as airports.
  4. Blocking UV Rays From The Sun

    Harmful UV rays from the sun can cause furniture, floors, and artwork to fade over time and introduce a risk to human health. The good news is that glazed windows can block harmful UV rays while allowing sufficient natural light into the building. This is possible by many different types of “Low-E” Coatings that can contribute to energy efficiency

Types of Window Glazing

The following are the different types of window glazing:

Single-Glazed Windows

‍A window with a singular pane of glass is called a single glaze or a single-pane window. It can be of different thicknesses and is typically considered on the low end of energy-efficient windows because it offers minimal protection against heat and cold.

Double-Glazed Windows

Double-glazed windows have two panes of glass, usually constructed with a sealed spacer and airspace or glass-filled space. This space is often referred to as an insulated unit or insulated glass unit. They are the most commonly sold windows on the market. Because of the layer of air or optional inert gas between the panes of glass, they offer an insulating value.

Triple-Glazed Windows

Triple-pane or triple-glazed windows comprise three panes of glass. They also have air or optional argon gas between the layers of glass. These windows can offer a higher performance level both in energy and sound than a double-glazed unit. Both insulated unit options can be enhanced by adding energy coatings, laminates, and various thicknesses of glass, making a window efficient even in extremely cold or hot climates.
