Glass Spandrel Panels

Specialist spandrel glass units for curtain walling and architectural façades.

Manufactured for façade contractors, glazing companies and curtain walling specialists delivering high-performance building envelopes.

Specialist spandrel glass manufactured for modern façades

Modern architectural façades demand clean sightlines and uninterrupted glass elevations. Behind those striking glazed exteriors are floor slabs, structural steelwork, insulation systems and building services that need to remain hidden without disrupting the appearance of the building.

Spandrel glass provides that solution.

At Crystal Units, we manufacture bespoke spandrel insulated glass units that integrate seamlessly with vision glazing to create a uniform façade whilst concealing the building’s structural elements.

Whether you’re delivering a commercial office, residential tower, healthcare facility or curtain walling project, our technical team supports glazing companies, façade contractors and window manufacturers with expertly manufactured spandrel glazing designed specifically for each project.

Why choose Crystal Units for spandrel glass?

Manufacturing spandrel glass is about far more than applying a ceramic coating. Achieving a façade with consistent colour, and long-term durability requires technical expertise long before the glass reaches site.

At Crystal Units, we work closely with façade contractors, glazing companies and curtain walling specialists to ensure every insulated glass unit is manufactured to suit the exact requirements of the project. Our technical team provides specification guidance, coating advice and manufacturing support throughout the process, Eliminating issues arising in installation, and achieve the highest quality finish.

From bespoke RAL and BS colour matching to large-format insulated glass units, every panel is manufactured in our UK facility using proven production methods and rigorous quality control. We are also the UK’s only licensed manufacturer able to paint Guardian SunGuard and ClimaGuard coated glass, providing additional flexibility for complex façade designs.

Manufactured for demanding façade applications

Spandrel glass is used wherever structural elements need to be concealed without interrupting the appearance of a glazed façade. Our insulated glass units are manufactured for commercial offices, residential towers, hospitals, universities and large-scale curtain walling projects where consistency between vision and non-vision glazing is essential.

Every project is different, which is why we manufacture spandrel units in a wide range of specifications including toughened safety glass, double and triple glazed units, ceramic frit coatings, solar control glass and acoustic glazing. Where enhanced thermal performance is required, our C.U.in technology can also be incorporated into the glazing specification.

Premium ceramic finishes

Our spandrel glass is manufactured using permanently fired ceramic enamel coatings.

Unlike painted finishes, ceramic frit coatings become permanently fused into the glass during the toughening process, providing:

Excellent colour stability

UV resistance

Scratch resistance

Long-term durability

Consistent façade appearance

A wide range of RAL and BS colours can be manufactured to suit project requirements.

Technical expertise for complex façades

Choosing the correct glass specification is only part of a successful façade design. Consideration must also be given to coating placement, colour consistency, roller wave, backing materials and curtain wall compatibility.

Rather than simply supplying glass, Crystal Units works with customers to help ensure these details are addressed before manufacture. This reduces the likelihood of costly site issues and helps deliver the premium architectural finish expected on modern commercial buildings.

Successful spandrel glazing depends on much more than selecting a colour.

Our technical team works with façade contractors and glazing companies to advise on:

  • Coating surface positioning
  • Visual consistency
  • Roller wave considerations
  • Colour matching
  • Curtain wall compatibility
  • Insulation requirements
  • Insulated glass specification
  • Long-term façade performance
