Environment

Glass is often overlooked as a key topic in the green building conversation. We plan to change that.

Specifying generic "low-e" glass is no longer good enough, because providing R-3 insulating performance in a world in which R-19 insulated walls have become the norm has created a dramatic performance gap between what glass provides and what green building practices promise in saving energy and reducing carbon emissions.

With homes and buildings responsible for 39% of all carbon emissions in the US, energy conservation enabled through the broad market adoption of high-performance glass, such as multi-cavity HEAT MIRROR insulating glass, is one of the most effective tools we have to dramatically impact climate change in the near-term.

We take this responsibility seriously and are committed to delivering the world's highest performance glass products that save energy costs while helping to save the environment.
