FINEO Vacuum Glazing: A Guide

FINEO vacuum glazing offers an additional option for listed buildings and properties in conservation areas. Its slim profile makes it suitable where maintaining original frames and sightlines is important.

In many cases, it is considered acceptable because it improves thermal performance without significantly altering the external appearance of traditional windows. This allows period properties to retain their historic character while benefiting from improved insulation.

As with any upgrade in a listed or conservation property, approval requirements should always be confirmed with the relevant local authority.

FINEO ultra-thin vacuum glazing provides improved thermal performance for timber windows without altering the existing frames. At approximately 7.7mm thick, it offers insulation levels comparable to triple glazing while retaining a slim profile suited to period properties.

Unlike conventional double glazing, vacuum glazing removes the air between the panes to reduce heat transfer. This improves overall thermal efficiency while maintaining traditional sightlines and detailing.

Vacuum glazing can also reduce UV transmission, helping limit fading of furnishings and interior finishes. As with any glazing upgrade in heritage properties, suitability and approval requirements should be confirmed before installation.

FINEO glazing also provides protection against UV radiation. Products within the FINEO safety range are designed to block up to 99% of UV rays, helping reduce fading of furnishings, flooring and interior finishes.

This added protection supports both comfort and long-term preservation of your interiors. In addition to thermal performance, it offers an extra level of protection without altering the appearance of your existing windows.
