Mitchell & Dickinson’s CosyGlazing secondary glazing solution is designed to optimize energy efficiency and has a U value of 1.7.
Low Iron GlassLow iron glass is ultra clear and provides a higher degree of transparency than clear float glass.
The glass surface is usually treated using specialized methods such as etching or sandblasting so it obscures views of the inside to protect privacy while still keeping the room bright.
Secondary glazing works as an additional layer of glazing for your existing windows.
UK building regulations require that all new windows be at least C-rated.
While good quality triple glazing can offer enhanced acoustic insulation, it really depends on the products, materials used and the installation.
With Mitchell & Dickinson’s secondary glazing products, easy installation is achieved using tape or magnetic strips, ensuring a secure fit without needing permanent alterations to the original window.
If conventional double glazing is not possible, such as in a listed building or with stained-glass windows, secondary glazing is the ultimate solution for insulating your building.
Triple glazing provides superior insulation, particularly suited for shaded areas where heat retention is key.

Resin laminateTwo or more sheets of glass assembled with one or more resin interlayers.
Double glazing works against this process, because the conducted heat doesn’t just head outside, it is transferred to the air between the panels – which is where convection comes in.
However, for anyone looking to balance the new regulations with heritage detailing, vacuum glass is the option that makes this possible.
Window U-values will need to be reduced from 1.2 W/m²K to 0.8 W/m²K, while doors (where more than 60% glazed) must achieve 1.0 W/m²K, down from the current 1.2 W/m²K.
Mitchell & Dickinson can guide you in choosing the most suitable option for your property based on your preferences and requirements.
This includes the glass, the frame and everything that goes into windows.
Dry GlazingA glazing process which does not use chemical compounds, only dry, mechanical fixings.
It also stops heat transferring to the timber, so fire cannot take hold around the edges of the glazing aperture.
Double glazing minimises heat loss thanks to the gas insulation in the sealed unit and the two glass panels.
