Ion Glass offer a wholly bespoke service to include every aspect of structural glass design and installation, individually tailored to meet your client’s unique requirements.
Above: This unusual glass structure by Ion Glass was designed to provide an entrance for an underground tunnel leading to a swimming pool – it is constructed from double-glazed panels for heat retention.
When you commission a glass structure for a building project of any nature, whether it’s a new-build, renovation, commercial project or updating a heritage building it’s essential to employ an experienced glass specialist. The finished result needs to be fully compliant, structurally sound and perfectly installed…as well as meeting all your design criteria.
Ion Glass offer a wide scope of work from glass linkways connecting buildings and spaces to glass porches and glass extensions. Ion’s bespoke approach includes achieving fully frameless results using the structural properties of glass to create supporting fins and beams.

- Full design service from concept to the finished product, including detailed CAD drawings.
- Ion undertakes all specialist glass calculations to ensure every project is fully compliant and meets all structural requirements.
- Every quotation submitted is comprehensive and fully researched to cover your exact specifications – Ion do not offer an ‘off the shelf’ approach to pricing.

- Ion is familiar with working in sensitive environments …whether it’s a centuries old building or a celebrity home.
Above: this suspended glass linkway designed and installed by Ion Glass links a new master bedroom suite to the main house. Constructed from double-glazed panels, the inclusion of a glass floor allows light to reach the walkway below.
Above: Ion used a technique of triple laminate glass to replicate traditional ‘mortice and tenon’ joints to create a substantial frameless structural glass porch that also serves as a link between a listed property and a modern extension.
Above: This stunning and unique glass porch creates a statement entrance to a barn renovation. The over-sized glass panels are wholly supported by structural glass fins and beams for a minimal result. Ion designed and commissioned the hidden fixings and bespoke bracketry.
