Glazing Styles

Decorative glass refers to glazing that has been enhanced with textures, patterns, or specialist finishes to deliver both style and functionality. At Accolade Windows, we offer a curated range that includes Pilkington obscure glass, perfect for privacy and decorative effect, as well as Planitherm clear glass, designed for exceptional clarity and thermal performance. These premium options go far beyond standard glazing, giving your home a bespoke finish that complements any architectural style.

Pilkington obscure glass, for example, softens incoming light with a beautifully diffused glow, making it a perfect choice for bathrooms, hallways, or entrance doors. If you want uninterrupted views and crystal-clear light, Planitherm clear glass is a superb choice, blending brightness with energy saving technology.
