Glas Trösch Group, which includes the float glass manufacturer Euroglas, has announced the release of its entire product range with a reduced carbon footprint.
The updated Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) indicates that all Euroglas flat glass has nearly 20% lower CO2 emissions compared to the industry average. The carbon equivalent of standard 4mm EUROFLOAT float glass is 9.83 kg CO2eq/m2, which is 19.7% lower than the industry standard of 12.24 kg CO2eq/m2 set by the Bundesverband Flachglas.
This achievement was made possible through the use of cullet, renewable energy sources, and the implementation of energy-saving measures. The company also reports increased efficiency of melting furnaces and optimized transportation routes.
