In observance of Earth Day, Vitro Architectural Glass is recognizing its growth as an environmentally-focused business and ongoing commitment to meeting the standards of sustainability certification programs through its introduction of new, sustainable products.
Vitro Glass’s commitment to sustainability prioritizes responsible manufacturing processes and large-scale energy reduction using energy-efficient low- emissivity glasses. Vitro’s family of Solarban solar control low-e glass products and other glasses by Vitro have been installed on hundreds of LEED-certified buildings, including at least three of the world’s certified net-zero “living” buildings.

Market share estimates suggest that about 0.5 quads approximately 0.5 x 1015 BTUs of that reduction is attributable to Vitro
