Another Pilkington Product for the Glass Age

"INSULIGHT' HOLLOW GLASS BLOCKS

The central tower of the Meyer Court flats

in Singapore is a fine example of the way 'Insulight' Hollow Glass Blocks can blend with other materials and be used as an inspiration to effective design. Their decorative possibility, however, is but one of their many qualities. They provide good light diffusion inside a building, coupled with a high level of heat and sound insulation and complete privacy. They are an excellent aid to hygiene and are extensively used where aseptic conditions are essential. By following the simple

specification construction can be carried

out by any builder or contractor. 'Insulight'

Hollow Glass Blocks are easily kept clean, and

there are no other maintenance costs.

This is an age in which few materials rival

glass in the contribution it makes to the

appearance, comfort and efficiency of modern buildings. Pilkington Brothers Limited have been making glass for 130 years, and today their products include all the types of

structural glass which are the feature of modern architecture and design.
