Sustainability Efforts

This decade is make-or-break in the fight for our environment. At Innovation Glass, we believe that sustainability and decarbonization must inform every design and engineering decision we make.

Our team works hard to decrease the "operational carbon" of buildings—the energy required to heat, cool, ventilate, and light a space—through smarter facade design.

While many sustainability efforts have focused on the "operational" carbon footprint of buildings—energy used for heating, cooling, and lighting—our industry is now also focusing on "embodied carbon," the carbon footprint of building materials themselves.
