Press Glass is committed to green solutions. During your visit, you can charge your car, contributing to the development of responsible and low-emission transportation.
A closed loop economy strategy is applied on the organisation’s premises . The site has areas with designated bins for different types of waste (plastic, glass and paper) – waste is put into a dedicated container.
If you witness an environmental malfunction or notice a procedure that is not in line with procedures, report it immediately to your Press Glass Supervisor.
ENERGY-EFFICIENT INSULATING GLASS IS THE KEY BUILDING MATERIAL OF THE SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE
Our task is to understand the needs and requirements of our business partners, meet them and, thus, support their competitiveness.
The equal role of quality, development and responsible production has guaranteed Press Glass its position as a European leader in the glazed units market.
Today’s technology allows the production of windows with incomparably better parameters of transmittance and thermal insulation with the values of Uw < 1.0 W/(m2K). Achieving such a ratio makes it possible to design and modernise nearly-zeroenergy buildings.
The return on investment time in terms of carbon emissions when replacing low-E (low emission) double-glass windows with low-E triple-glass windows depends on the climate, the efficiency of the heating or cooling system and the energy conversion rate.
The new Press Glass facilities, which are scheduled to be operational between 2023 and 2026, will be low-carbon sites due to the combined use of wind and solar energy.
We start the changes with ourselves, implementing the rules of the closed-loop economy and monitoring the life cycle of our glass units. We create a responsible future that is friendly to our customers, employees, and the environment.
Today’s technology allows the production of windows with incomparably better permeability and thermal insulation parameters with Uw values < 1.0 W/(m2K). Achieving such a coefficient makes it possible to design and modernise near-zero-energy buildings.
Cooperation between stakeholders is an integral part of responsible resource management. To create a responsible business, we are in continuous contact with our suppliers and customers, both domestic and foreign. Together, we set the directions for development and discuss climate strategies. In doing so, we aim to involve all stakeholders as much as possible in the creation of a sustainable supply chain.
Transparency of activities is one of our core values. For this reason, we have opted for environmental reporting according to the best global standards. Since July 26, 2021, we have been listed in the international CDP database, which takes into account, among other things, information on greenhouse gas emissions. The CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) is an international non-profi t organisation that helps companies, cities, and countries identify their environmental impact.
The carbon footprint of Press Glass was calculated using the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, enabling us to fully control and monitor the sources of greenhouse gas emissions emitted by our production facilities.
