Please note our Christmas shutdown this year will run from Friday 20th December until Monday 6th January. To reiterate, our last delivery day in 2019 will be Friday December 20th, although volumes dependent we may well bring forward any orders for this day to minimise deliveries, especially distance on the last day.

Full service being resumed for orders, enquiries and deliveries on Monday 6th January 2019.

Standard working day lead times will apply across this period, so obviously any product required for early January would need to be ordered well before the break. We will of course do all we can to help over this period and will endeavour to meet any particular delivery requirements you may have.

Finally, a big thank you to all of our customers for a great year in 2019, we wish you all the best over the festive period!

Best Wishes,

The Global Glass Team.

Part 1 of our 4-part interview with our Managing Director, Ryan Green. This week we’re on the topic of ‘The Clayton Difference’, the mantra that Clayton Glass lives by, and has done since the company’s inception in 1956.

Glass is everywhere in the 21^st century, and the uses for the material are becoming more and more creative, year on year. Specifically, this is the history of glass, looking at when glass was invented, natural glass and more. Let’s take a look at the remarkable journey the glass in your window frames has taken over the last 5,000 years.

Is glass the greatest material of all time? At Clayton Glass, we think you’d be hard pressed to name a better one. Firstly, not only is it durable, secure and completely recyclable. Glass is a blank canvas, and furthermore a medium for expressing colourful, and complicated, genius. Subsequently, ever since everyone’s favourite transparent insulator became the norm in households all over the world, artists and creatives have been showcasing their talents, in the creation of some truly exceptional works of stained-glass window art.

Clayton Glass today announces plans for a factory expansion on their flagship site, making it likely to become the largest glass factory anywhere in mainland UK.
