Partnerships

Six partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• Pilkington UK (NSG Group)coreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 1 April 2025Industry-first circular recycling partnership within Pilkington's NSG Group renew:glass programme. Fire Glass implemented strict sorting and decontamination procedures at Manchester and Oldbury branches, with operatives manually inspecting and stripping non-glass components from fire-rated glass offcuts before returning material to Pilkington's cullet stream for remelting into new float glass. Since full rollout in April 2025, over 500 tonnes of fire-rated glass has been recycled, avoiding landfill and generating estimated 356.09 tonnes CO2e savings. The next stage explores bringing post-consumer fire-rated glass (recovered after installation) into the same circular system.
• PyroguardcoreTechnology or IntegrationExclusive stockists and suppliers of Pyroguard fire-rated glass products including Firesafe 19, Pyroguard Advance range (next-generation gel interlayer technology), and other Pyroguard products. The Pyroguard Advance range is designed for timber and composite fire door manufacturers.

• Technical Fire Safety Group (TFSG)coreOthersFire Glass UK is part of the Technical Fire Safety Group (TFSG). TFSG has expanded through acquisitions including Mann McGowan. The group provides a platform for Fire Glass UK's growth and strategic expansion.

Expansion highlights6 records

Regional players

• Tuffx Glass: UK-based toughened and processed glass manufacturer serving construction and architectural markets. Comparable processing capabilities and B2B distribution, but less specialised in fire-rated glass and more focused on balustrades, splashbacks, and structural glazing.

Direct peers

• Schott UK (Schott AG): Manufacturer of Pyranova and other fire-resistant glazing used in UK commercial construction. Comparable in serving the same specifier and contractor base with certified fire-rated glass products, though Schott sits further upstream as a primary glassmaker rather than a fabricator/distributor.
• Pyroguard: Manufacturer of fire-rated glass (Firesafe, Pyroguard Advance gel-interlayer range) and a sister company of Fire Glass UK under the svt Group umbrella. Most direct product overlap and shared end customers, with the relationship also including an exclusive UK stockist arrangement.
• AGC Glass UK (AGC Europe): UK arm of AGC, manufacturer of Pyrobel and Pyrobelite fire-rated glass. AGC is both a supplier to Fire Glass UK and a competitor in the same fire-rated specification market for commercial and residential projects.
• Pilkington United Kingdom (NSG Group): Manufacturer of Pyrodur and Pyrostop fire-rated glass and Fire Glass UK's recycling partner under the renew:glass programme. Overlaps in product range, UK specifier base, and commercial construction channel.
• Wrightstyle Ltd: UK specialist in fire-rated glazing systems and steel/aluminium framing for commercial and transport infrastructure. Comparable as a UK-focused fire-rated glazing specialist targeting specifiers and contractors, though with a stronger systems-integration angle.

Broad incumbents

• Crittall Windows: Historic UK steel window and door manufacturer supplying commercial, education, and heritage projects. Overlaps in certified fire-rated window/door assemblies and specifier channel, though Crittall is a systems manufacturer rather than a glass fabricator.
• Saint-Gobain Glassolutions: UK arm of Saint-Gobain, offering processed glass including fire-rated options (Contraflam) alongside a broad glazing product portfolio and installation services. Larger and broader than Fire Glass UK but directly competes in fire-rated specification and supply.

Emerging players

• Senior Architectural Systems: UK aluminium systems house including fire-rated fenestration ranges (e.g., AluFire). Overlaps with Fire Glass UK's supply-and-fit offering in the commercial fire-rated window and partition space, though Senior is primarily a systems fabricator rather than glass specialist.
• Glazpart Ltd: UK manufacturer of glazing accessories including fire-rated components, spacers, and ventilation products. Adjacent in the fire-rated glazing supply chain and serving similar window/door/partition manufacturers, but focused on accessories rather than the glass itself.
