Sustainability and energy efficiency

With growing environmental concerns, regulations around the world have been tightened to curb carbon emissions and reduce energy consumption of buildings. In response, construction companies and builders are emphasizing on the use of energy efficient components and eco-friendly materials in their projects. Flat glass has emerged as a sustainable construction material owing to its various properties. Glass facade and windows allow maximum natural light inside buildings minimizes the usage of artificial lighting, thereby lowering electricity costs. The insulation properties of glass also help maintain ambient indoor temperature and thus reducing energy needs for heating and cooling.

Advanced glazing technologies have further strengthened the energy saving potential of flat glass. The introduction of innovations like low-e glass, smart glass, and vacuum glass have made windows more insulating. These specialized glasses can reflect sunlight, retain indoor heat, and some can even change properties according to temperature control needs.
