KJM launch the new Planitherm glass range

Choosing the right glass for your home will have a huge impact on the performance of your windows, so it’s important to get it right. KJM have just launched the new range of Planitherm glass as glazing options have become more complicated in recent times. This initiative from Saint Gobain has made making the choice easier for the consumer.

The glass options are split into five categories

Energy efficiency
Enhanced Security
Noise Reduction
Furniture fade protection
Reducing overheating

These categories help you arrive at one of three glass units choices:-

Planitherm Energy Standard
