Comfort Plus glass provides the perfect balance of light, warmth and comfort. An invisible coating blocks out 50% of external heat from the sun while keeping in 63% more internal heat*.
It's ideal in sunny south- and west-facing rooms or for large glazed areas such as bi-fold or patio doors, making your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
A built-in transparent layer also makes Comfort Plus harder to break through, and provides up to 20% better noise reduction than older-style double glazing* so you're sure of a good night's sleep. It can even protect furniture from fading, blocking 99% of damaging UV rays**.

Features of Comfort Plus
ENERGY EFFICIENCY - With Planitherm, energy efficiency comes as standard.
A special coating on our glass helps stop heat escaping, so you’ll use less energy to keep your home warm. Our Energy Standard and Comfort glazing captures and makes use of the warmth from natural daylight, while Comfort Plus helps limit and control it – ideal for very sunny rooms.
ENHANCED SECURITY - Helps protect your family from break-ins and vandalism.
Our high-security transparent layer on Comfort and Comfort Plus glass makes them much tougher to break through than standard, unlaminated glass. Used in an approved window frame, they're designed to meet the official police security initiative ‘Secured by Design’ standard, so you’ll feel safer and more secure in your home.
NOISE REDUCTION - Make your home a peaceful respite from the world outside.
Perfect for bedrooms to ensure a good night’s sleep, a built-in acoustic layer keeps exterior noise exactly where it belongs – outside. If you live on a busy road or close to other disturbing sounds, noise control glazing should be on your list.
FURNITURE FADE PROTECTION - Keep your furniture looking newer for longer.
Prolonged exposure to ultra-violet light from the sun will contribute to your furniture and curtains fading over time. Our hidden layer of protection on Comfort and Comfort Plus glass blocks out 99% of the sun’s UV rays. Think of it as sun-block for your sofa, curtains and carpets!
REDUCE OVERHEATING - Perfect balance of light and warmth.
Rooms with lots of glass will give you a great view, but the warmth from natural daylight can make it uncomfortably hot on sunny days. Our Comfort Plus glass has a special coating designed to keep out heat from the sun’s rays, for a comfortable, bright environment and greater control of your internal temperature. It's particularly suited for south- and west-facing rooms with sunny aspects, or larger glazed areas such as bi-fold and patio doors.
