Glazing and R&D Tax Credits
The UK Government’s R&D tax credits initiative offers an additional tax reduction of up to 33p for every qualifying pound spent on R&D. When a glazing company starts investigating, testing and trying to create new solutions to meet a job brief, process inefficiency or gap in the market, they are carrying out R&D.
