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]

Climate change and the urgent need for more effective environmental protection are currently high on the public agenda. Industry needs to focus on designing products that are not only healthy, sustainable and recyclable, but also not harmful to the environment. Only then will we have a ‘green footprint’ that supports the biosphere instead of damaging it. Discover why glass is more environmentally responsible than ever before with Cradle-to-Cradle certification.
