Saint-Gobain: A new step towards circularity and buildings decarbonisation!

Glass Futures (GF) has installed a unique AI-driven ‘digital twin’ of its glass furnace capable of testing and predicting new and the best ways to make glass and other materials.

Saint-Gobain Glass expands its COOL-LITE® family with the launch of COOL-LITE® SKN 155 and SKN 155 II, highly selective solar control coatings engineered for today’s high performance façades.

This industry is among the most energy-intensive sectors there are. Melting tanks operate round the clock, fossil fuels dominate production. Decarbonising this industry is a challenge.

Tecglass has announced that its JETVER ceramic ink 1C009 has been officially tested and recognized by Saint-Gobain Glass for ceramic printing on COOL-LITE® coatings used in façade applications.

For many installers, waste removal has traditionally been viewed as little more than a necessary operational task, arrange a skip, clear the site, move onto the next job.

At glasstec 2026 circularity is one of the key three Hot Topics. Exhibitors will show how glass products are developed to be more suitable for recycling, how insulation glass units are separated automatically and how new sources of cullet can be leveraged for production.
