Gilbert & McCart Ltd. is a respected name in the field of decorative Copperlight Glazing, we are recognized for our craftsmanship, attention to detail, and ability to blend traditional techniques with modern design aesthetics. We continue to be an influential player in preserving and advancing the art of Copperlight Glazing
Copperlight Glazing is a fire rated glazing system for internal and external use, produced to current aesthetic standards, but developed as a contemporary equivalent to the first ever Fire Resistant Glazing from the19th Century.
Different 6mm standard production glass types can create clear or diffused glazing options. Variable combinations of glass and module sizes allow for customized proportions in any opening. Additionally, size variations within a single unit and the juxtaposition of different glass types and textures offer extra design potential.
