Our carbon footprint in 2022
As part of our strategy and environmental targets, our carbon footprint is assessed on a yearly basis. We report and account for our corporate GHG emissions across our entire value chain.
AGC and Saint-Gobain Partner for the Decarbonization of Flat Glass Manufacturing
AGC and Saint-Gobain announced that they are collaborating on the design of a pilot breakthrough flat glass line that is expected to reduce very significantly its direct CO2 emissions.
AGC's holistic approach to achieve CO2-neutral glass production by 2050, not only includes decarbonising the glass production processes but also eliminating all CO2 emissions from the supply chain upstream of our processes and other indirect emissions
With the launch of a Low-Carbon glass range, AGC is now offering its customers glass, which – from the extraction of raw materials to final installation – generates more than 40% less CO2 than our standard glass.
Using green energy resources is essential to achieve carbon neutrality. AGC is working on maximising on-site energy recovery and on- and off-site renewable electricity generation.
