Inspired by the timeless essence of a Greek goddess, POLFLAM revolutionary product symbolizes the nurturing spirit of Mother Earth and is a ground breaking solution dedicated to preserving the planet.
Pioneering a new era, POLFLAM GAIA is the world’s first low-carbon fire-resistant glass, thoughtfully crafted through the fusion of hydrogel technology from the POLFLAM factory and the distinctive attributes of Pilkington Mirai™ low-carbon float glass. Employing environmentally conscious methods, such as the use of alternative fuels, renewable energy and raw material recycling, this glass ensures a significantly reduced carbon footprint.
By using eco-friendly material and advanced production techniques, POLFLAM has successfully cut CO2 emissions during manufacturing process by up to 65 percent compared to standard fire-resistant glass.
POLFLAM GAIA with its reduced carbon footprint can achieve superior results in Green Building Labels environmental certification, aligning seamlessly with LEED, BREEAM and DGNB standards. This product makes it easy to reach the highest standards of eco-friendly construction. With fire resistance ranging from EI15 to EI180, this glass isn’t just an eco-friendly innovation; it’s a partner in creating a sustainable and vibrant living space.
Independently evaluated by a third-party institute conducting a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), the new EPD is set to confirm POLFLAM GAIA as the fire-resistant glass with the lowest carbon footprint on the market by the end of the first quarter of 2024.
