Using 21st century technology and traditional inspiration, we can now manufacture beautiful windows for Church restorations and similar projects and unlike the traditional method of Stained Glass, we can create these windows with regulation toughened glass, Pilkington K energy saving glass and laminated glass.

What are the benefits of
There are many problems with the traditional form of Stained Glass for use in church windows such as easy breakage, poor energy saving values and poor security levels. Our new technique can create beautiful church glass using the best quality energy saving glass sealed units available. We can also create the glass using regulation 4mm or 6mm toughened or laminated glass to give any building the highest level of safety and security available.

On the picture above we have taken photographs of the head and both hands and transferred these images onto toughened Pilkington K glass using our technique .
