Fire Rated Glass
SCHOTT UK
PYRAN®
PYRAN® fire-resistant glazing is superior to conventional safety glass for a number of reasons. Made from borosilicate, it shows stronger resistance to a range of temperature differentials, which offers the potential for larger panes with longer fire resistance times and reduced fracturing.
Life-saving light transmission
PYRAN® glazing retains outstanding transparency in extreme temperatures. This can be vital in the event of a fire, when visibility is challenged, and can be a life-saver when evacuating a building. Meanwhile, high light transmission along with excellent color reproduction mean that security can still be combined with attractive aesthetics.
Enduring, popular and versatile
PYRAN® has been a globally trusted safety glazing product for decades, and it’s likely you will have already benefitted from its protection in many areas of everyday life. Commonly found in airports, hotels, school, museums, offices and shopping centers around the world, its versatility means it’s found in doors, roofs, facades and partitions, as well as windows.
Product variants
PYRAN® S is a pre-stressed monolithic borosilicate safety glass, while ISO PYRAN® S is a double-glazed unit offering extra insulation and protection. Other variants include PYRAN® G for curved glazing and the floated glass-ceramic PYRAN® Star.

PYRANOVA®
PYRANOVA® is a clear, laminated composite glass that offers outstanding levels of fire resistance thanks to a combination of thin glass panes and internal layers. In the event of a fire, these layers foams up to prevent the passage of heat radiation, smoke and flames, protecting people at evacuation routes.
Stylish and effective
SCHOTT PYRANOVA® laminated glass is a highly popular choice for fire-resistant glazing due to its attractive design, an advantage that combines with effective function. PYRANOVA® meets all the requirements of fire resistance classes EI 15 to EI 120 and EW 30 to EW 60, offering high levels of fire protection for buildings and the people inside them.
Proven safety for escape routes
The robust, heat-resistant protective shield that PYRANOVA® creates around passages such as fire escapes, emergency exits and staircases ensures there is a safe, protected exit route for occupants of a business or residence, which can prove invaluable in the event of a serious fire.
Product variants
SCHOTT also produces ISO PYRANOVA®, which incorporates PYRANOVA® in a double-glazed unit where enhanced features are required. With strong anti-glare protection plus excellent sound and heat insulation, it’s an attractive energy-efficient solution, with construction designs making it suitable for interior and exterior use.
