Glas Trösch has teamed up with Corning Incorporated, a leading materials company, to develop a new generation of Triple insulating glass. This glass integrates Corning ATG as an ultra-thin centre pane with a thickness of just 0.5 mm.

This design is lighter than conventional insulating glass and offers significant energy efficiency benefits. ‘Corning's outstanding technical expertise, combined with our modern production facilities, enables us to offer a wider range of sustainable glass solutions,’ says Fabian Zwick, CEO of the Glas Trösch Group.
Focus on sustainability and energy efficiency
The thin Triple insulating glass has several advantages: The thin centre pane increases the gas filling within the insulating glass unit, which significantly improves the Ug value. This lowers energy consumption and reduces the carbon footprint.
The lower weight of the insulating glass units also reduces the amount of material used and makes handling easier. ‘Our collaboration with Glas Trösch makes it possible to offer customers in Europe lighter, more energy-efficient solutions that improve both new and existing buildings,’ explains Ron Verkleeren, Senior Vice President at Corning.
