Energy Efficient Vacuum Insulated Glass

Vacuum Insulated Glass

Vacuum Insulated Glass is an advanced glazing solution designed to deliver exceptional thermal performance within a slim profile. At Tailored Wood, we supply and install Vacuum Insulated Glass for timber windows and doors, supporting heritage projects and modern homes across the South of the UK.Each unit is carefully specified to suit the property, whether for box sash windows, casements or bespoke joinery. Vacuum Insulated Glass provides impressive insulation while maintaining the refined appearance required for period and listed buildings.

What Is Vacuum Insulated Glass

Incredible Energy Efficient Glass

Vacuum Insulated Glass, often referred to as VIG, consists of two panes of glass separated by a vacuum cavity. The absence of air between the panes significantly reduces heat transfer, helping to improve overall energy efficiency.

Because the cavity is extremely thin, Vacuum Insulated Glass panels can achieve excellent U values without the thickness associated with traditional double glazing. This makes them well suited to timber frames where maintaining original proportions is essential.

Benefits of Vacuum Insulated Glass

Understanding the benefits of vacuum insulated glass helps when selecting glazing for heritage and performance focused projects. These are just a few of the benefits of using vacuum insulated glazing panels:

  • Vacuum Insulated Glass can achieve very low U-values, helping to reduce heat loss and improve internal comfort.
  • The narrow construction allows Vacuum Insulated Glass windows to retain traditional glazing bar details and putty finishes.
  • The vacuum layer helps reduce external noise transmission, supporting a quieter interior environment.
  • The slim build and discreet appearance make Vacuum Insulated Glass appropriate for conservation areas and heritage properties where planning considerations apply.
  • Enhanced thermal performance can lower the likelihood of internal condensation forming on the glass surface.

Vacuum Insulated Glass Windows for Heritage and Modern Homes

We regularly install Vacuum Insulated Glass windows within bespoke timber frames, including box sash and casement designs. This glazing option supports improved energy efficiency while respecting the architectural character of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian properties.

For renovation projects, Vacuum Insulated Glass can often be incorporated into new joinery that mirrors the original sightlines. For contemporary homes, it offers a high performance glazing solution within elegant timber frames.

Made to Measure Vacuum Insulated Glass Panels

All Vacuum Insulated Glass panels supplied by Tailored Wood are made to precise specifications. Accurate measuring and in house manufacturing ensure each unit fits seamlessly within the window design.

Our joiners consider glazing bar layouts, rebates and frame dimensions from the outset. This approach ensures the finished installation maintains both performance and visual integrity.

Price Considerations

Vacuum insulated glass price depends on several factors including panel size, specification, installation requirements and project scale. As a specialist joinery company, we provide detailed quotations following a survey and consultation.

While Vacuum Insulated Glass represents a premium glazing option, it delivers long term energy performance and supports compliance with modern efficiency standards in sensitive buildings. If it lies outside your price range, we offer a variety of other glazing options that are still suitable for heritage properties.

Vacuum Insulated Glass Manufacturers and Quality Assurance

We’re manufacturers who meet rigorous quality standards. Each unit is produced using advanced processes to maintain the integrity of the vacuum cavity and ensure reliable performance over time.

All glazing is carefully handled and installed by our experienced team to protect the structure of the unit and the surrounding timber frame.

Fully Bespoke and Installed In House

Tailored Wood oversees the entire process from survey and design to manufacture and installation. Vacuum Insulated Glass is integrated into our bespoke timber windows within our own workshop, allowing full control over quality and finish.

Nothing is subcontracted. This ensures consistency across every element of the project, from glazing specification to final decoration. You can have total peace of mind that the Tailored Wood team is the only point of contact you need to oversee your entire glazing renovation.

What People Say...

Please can you thank everyone involved with our new windows. We are thrilled with them, they are beyond our expectations.

It’s been a pleasure having your company complete this work for us, it has been made so easy.

We will of course get in touch should we have any teething problems, but we are not expecting them as the quality is superb.

Recently used Tailored Wood and I’d like to say they helped with everything from the survey and design, dealing with specifications required by the council (conservation area) to the communication, administration staff and the fitting, all was amazing! The fitter was so efficient, cleaned up, took all old windows away! I could not have received better service. Highly recommended. Thank you Tailored Wood.

Sash Windows Replacement | Portchester

We needed restoration work as well as complete replacements for some sash windows, and I have to say I now can’t tell which is which. Many of the period details had been removed from the building by previous owners but with the help of Joel and his team we managed to restore the soul of my home. From start to finish such care and attention goes into their work it was a joy to work with them.

Box Sash & Casement Windows, Door Set | Ringwood, Hampshire

I cannot recommend Tailored Wood highly enough. Really good local business with highly motivated staff. Not only superb craftsmen but also keen to renovate rather than replace where ever possible. Always on time, kept mess to a minimum and fantastic after sale service on any snags. If you are considering any door or window projects I would always include these guys in your round of quotes.

Sash Windows Restoration & Replacement | St Cross, Winchester

WOW! Joel & his team completely transformed our rotting single glazed windows in our period terrace home. Using a combination of refurbishment and new windows we now have beautiful wooden sash double glazed windows entirely in keeping with the property. Joel’s attention to detail, great communication throughout the project, and thorough cleaning down each day made it a whole lot less stressful than we’d anticipated. Joel & his team were an absolute pleasure to work with and have in our home, we would highly recommend them.

Amy Elizabeth Austin

Sash Windows Refurbishment & Replacement

We are absolutely delighted with our new hardwood sash windows! They are so beautiful and we are so pleased to have been able to retain as much of the original wood as possible. They look exactly like the originals and it is almost impossible to see they are double-glazed. We are so glad we did not go for the more expensive PVC wood imitations. Excellent skilful fitter too.

Lysbeth Sleath

Sash Windows Restoration & Replacement | St Cross, Winchester

After meeting with Joel, his personable approach, and excellent advice and ideas, were our reasons for choosing Joel and his team to make and fit our windows. The windows have transformed the front of our house. The craftsmanship is excellent and the attention to detail regarding decorating and finish is second to none. The after-service was excellent.

We’re now getting Joel and his team back to install a skylight. Thank you to Tailored Wood. Highly recommended.
