Vacuum Glazing: the Insulating Glass That Keeps on Giving - George Barnsdale

George Barnsdale is pleased to offer Fineo vacuum glazing as part of our range of glazing options.

Fineo is the new generation of insulating glass. With new vacuum technology, Fineo combines glazing with a minimal glass thickness with exceptional thermal and acoustic comfort. Fineo ultra-thin vacuum glazing delivers modern warmth and comfort to timber windows, without changing the frames. It combines exceptionally high thermal insulation with extreme thinness, a great fit for historic buildings or homes where retaining the character and charm is a top priority.

How does Fineo compare with other glazing types?

Compared to other glazing alternatives, Fineo can achieve similar insulation to triple glazing without the added bulk, whilst allowing up to 15% more daylight into the space. When we compare Fineo to all other glazing types, you get a real idea of its benefits. Maintain your historic homes and buildings’ character whilst enjoying modern comforts.
