Glass conservatorys are also known as orangeries; historically an orangery was a place for the cultivation of oranges and lemons and other exotic plants.
The surrounding gardens in which orange trees were placed were referred to as orangeries. Today the term "orangery" has become fuzzier, referring to a largely glazed building with a glass roof, a glass conservatory. In many respects today’s orangerie combines the best features of a traditionally built room extension with the benefits of "living under glass", as afforded by conservatory and sunroom living. The primary materials used for glass conservatories still remain as Timber and Stone. These are still the best materials for "replicating" this most traditional of glass buildings although it is possible to find some suppliers using PVCu and Aluminum. We have the ability to design, engineer and fabricate individually tailored projects with a diverse choice of styles, materials and finishes.
