As building standards continue to rise, so does the demand for smarter, more efficient glazing. One of the most exciting developments in modern glass technology is vacuum glazing — a high‑performance solution that delivers exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation without the bulk of traditional systems. What Is Vacuum Glazing? Vacuum glazing does exactly what it…
Architectural Glazing is the use of glass as a fundamental, structural component in building design, often featuring large bespoke panels, expansive facades or frameless installations, such as those requiring our CN Glass two-part silicone sealant. Buildings designed using architectural glazing combine aesthetics, high-transparency and high-performance such as thermal efficiency, safety and, security to connect interior…
In February 2026, CN Glass launched their first ever Easter Doors competition. Pupils from local primary schools in and around Banbury were invited to submit their entries whereby they were asked to produce a colourful Easter scene which would be made into the glass doors of the premises showroom. The winning design, submitted by five-year-old…
Structural glazing has become one of the most striking features of contemporary architecture. From seamless glass walls to weight‑bearing walkways, it allows natural light to flood into a space while creating a clean, modern aesthetic that traditional building materials simply can’t match. At CN Glass, we specialise in designing, supplying and installing structural glazing solutions…
Selecting the right door for a commercial building is very different from choosing a door for a residential property. While both need to look welcoming and function smoothly, commercial doors must withstand heavy daily use, meet strict safety regulations, and provide enhanced security. If you’re planning a new shop front, office entrance, or industrial doorway,…
Quick Summary Double glazing in commercial buildings typically lasts between 20 and 30 years when properly manufactured, installed, and maintained. Lifespan depends on factors such as seal quality, environmental exposure, and usage conditions. Over time, seals can degrade, leading to condensation between panes and reduced thermal performance. High-quality sealed units with durable materials and correct…
Quick Summary Reducing operational carbon through smarter glazing choices involves selecting high-performance glass that improves energy efficiency and lowers building energy demand. Double or triple glazed units with low-emissivity coatings and gas fills reduce heat loss and minimise the need for heating and cooling. Solar control glass limits overheating and decreases reliance on air conditioning….

In the UK, 15% to 30% of a home’s heat is typically lost through inefficient or poorly fitted windows and doors. In older properties with single glazing or noticeable draughts, that figure can climb even higher, reaching 20% to 25%. With energy prices still a concern for many households, ensuring your home is performing at…
Structural glazing sealants are a vital component in today’s modern building systems. They allow glass to be securely bonded to other materials—whether glass‑to‑glass or glass‑to‑metal—while offering exceptional flexibility, UV resistance, and long‑term durability. These qualities make silicone sealants the preferred choice for load‑bearing applications such as curtain walling and glass façades. At CN Glass, based…
