Glass manifestation is marking such as dots, bands, logos or frosted strips applied to glass doors, screens and partitions so people can see the glass and don't walk into it.
Good reasons to look at glass manifestation in Southampton
- Offices in Southampton moving into space with glass partitions often find manifestation on the landlord's list before handover.
- Rebranding a Southampton office? Old manifestation can be replaced at the same time, so the safety markings match the new look.
- Shops with frameless glass entrances in Southampton can turn the marking into branding, repeating the logo in both zones.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Southampton
Two sets of rules can touch glass graphics in England. The first is advertisement control: lettering and graphics on the inside of a shop window are often outside it or allowed, but councils differ, and conservation areas and listed shopfronts can bring restrictions on large graphics. The second is safety. Approved Document K points to manifestation bands at 850–1000 mm and 1400–1600 mm from the floor, and in workplaces regulation 14 of the 1992 Workplace Regulations requires glazing to be marked where needed. We take both into account when we set out the proof, and we check with the council where the building or street calls for it.
