The enormous CO₂ benefit of a massive switch to BENGglas: this is what it really delivers!

If the whole of the Netherlands switches to BENGglas, we achieve a structural CO₂ saving of no less than 4.1 megatons per year — that is equivalent to 170,000 car trips from Amsterdam to Paris! In production alone, BENGglas saves more than 24,000 tons of CO₂ annually. For an average house, BENGglas means a saving of 1,800 kg CO₂ per year, which can amount to as much as 90,000 kg CO₂ per house over 50 years. This directly contributes to achieving our climate goals: it can realize more than 8% of the CO₂ reduction in the built environment by 2030 and helps the Netherlands become climate neutral by 2050. It is not just glass, it is a revolution in sustainable building.

Why is BENGglas the game changer that helps solve the climate crisis?

The climate crisis calls for radically different solutions. Yet the biggest energy leak in buildings often remains invisible: the glass. BENGglas is not just insulation glass, but a groundbreaking technology with a U-value starting from 0.35 W/m²K — almost twice as good as triple glazing (0.70) and three times better than HR++ (1.10). Moreover, BENGglas lasts an average of 50 years, twice as long as traditional glass, and is produced with 30% less material compared to HR+++ glass.

That concretely means:

  • Only one production cycle every 50 years, with 50% less raw materials and transport
  • Structurally 50% less CO₂ emissions during production
  • Up to 30% less glass volume and lighter weight, saving building materials and installation time
  • Suitable for any existing frame thanks to the revolutionary thickness of just 8.3 mm

BENGglas combines enormous energy savings with a drastic reduction in environmental impact — an innovation that is not only smarter but also indispensable in the energy transition.

Is BENGglas sustainably and environmentally friendly produced?

Absolutely. BENGglas is produced by LandVac, a world leader in vacuum glass and an absolute frontrunner in the industry. LandVac combines advanced technology with a strong focus on sustainability, making BENGglas not only superior in insulation performance but also in terms of environmental friendliness.

The production takes place in a state-of-the-art factory that runs entirely on green energy, generated by a nearby reservoir and a large number of solar panels. These renewable energy sources ensure an extremely low CO₂ footprint during the production process.

Additionally, BENGglas is equipped with the CIC Green Product Certification, an internationally recognized label that demonstrates the product meets the highest standards in sustainability, environmental friendliness, and socially responsible production. This certification confirms that BENGglas is a future-proof product that not only contributes to energy savings in buildings but also to reducing the impact on our planet.

With BENGglas, you choose groundbreaking insulation glass that is made in a responsible and sustainable way — insulation glass that makes a difference, from production to years of use.
