Table of options: MONO single glazing

The table below will help you select the MONO single-glazing system which best suits your historic property, and there’s also guidance on how to choose the right period glass.

We offer 2 types of single-glazing system:

  • MONO Laminate – a laminate system available in float or period glass
  • MONO RT+ – a single pane of glass (hand-drawn glass only) with a thermal coating.

HISTOGLASS MONO GLAZING SYSTEMS

The Histoglass MONO range has been developed for projects where the visual character of traditional single glazing must be retained whilst improving thermal insulation, durability and performance.
