With a view to meeting growing market demand and reducing the environmental impact of its production processes in line with its Roadmap to Carbon Neutrality, AGC Glass Europe launched its Low-Carbon Glass range in 2022.

With a view to meeting the market’s growing demand for laminated glass, AGC Glass Europe proudly announces the start-up of the new laminating line at its plant in Osterweddingen, Germany. This major investment offers long-term potential in this growing market.

AGC is expanding its range of solar control glass products to meet growing demand for enhanced-neutrality solar control glazing.

AGC Glass Europe is constantly working to reduce the environmental impact of its production processes to ensure a sustainable future. Under its Roadmap to Carbon Neutrality, the Group has now announced that by the end of 2022 it will produce a float glass range featuring a significantly reduced carbon footprint of less than 7 kg of CO2 per m2 for clear glass (4 mm thick).
This move will enable AGC – one of the world's largest flat glass producers – to reduce the carbon emissions generated during the production of this float glass by more than 40% . [1]

To contribute to a sustainable world, AGC Glass Europe is committed to developing products that promote sustainable development, and to reducing the environmental impact of its production processes. Today, the Group is taking its sustainable approach one step further as it announces a new glass range with a significantly reduced carbon footprint, to be launched by the end of 2022. Details will be provided at a press conference at glasstec 2022 in Düsseldorf in September.
