We don't want to improve glass - we want to change the norm.
From glass as a silent polluter to glass as a silent hero.
For the climate. For generations. For the future of building.
BENG glass makes the difference. Join us and become part of the solution.
We are facing the greatest challenge of our time: the climate crisis. Yet the biggest energy leak in our buildings often remains invisible: glass. One of the largest and least addressed parts of the building envelope.
BENG glass breaks that pattern and offers the most impactful - and most underexposed - solution for energy transition: vacuum glass.
- With an unprecedented low U-value from 0.35 W/m²K
- Saves twice as much energy as triple glazing (U = 0.70)
- Three times as much as HR++ glass (U = 1.10)
- Lasts up to 50 years - twice as long as standard insulation glass
- So thin that it fits any frame and saves material
- Produced with 30% less material than triple glazing
An innovation that not only saves energy, but also drastically reduces raw materials, transportation and CO₂ emissions.
If we switch en masse to BENG glass, together we will realize:
- Up to 50% lower CO₂ emissions in households
- Structurally lower CO₂ emissions in production
- 50% less raw materials and transport required
- Less building material, thanks to retaining existing frames and lighter hardware
- Only one production cycle every 50 years
- A 30% saving in required glass volume
- Structural savings for generations to come
Some 8 million m² of HR++ and triple glass is produced annually in the Netherlands alone. If we completely replace this with BENG glass:
- We structurally save over 24,000 tons of CO₂ per year.
- That is equivalent to 170,000 car journeys from Amsterdam to Paris
And that's just the savings in production. The real gain is in use.
The Netherlands aims for 55% less emissions in 2030, and complete climate neutrality in 2050. Just by replacing outdated glass with BENG glass:
- Do we achieve more than 8% of the built environment target for 2030
- Make a lasting contribution to a climate neutral Netherlands in 2050
At BENG glass, we are making a real difference, not just in insulation but for our future. Our vacuum glass offers an unprecedented low U-value of 0.35, up to 50 years of service life and -36 dB of noise reduction - all in your existing frames, without heavy metals and with up to 30% less material consumption than triple glazing.
