Pilkington has been proud to be the technological leader in glass manufacturing for many years. Whether it's improved processes such as the float glass manufacturing process; of which produce more than 95% of glass worldwide, advanced coating technologies (pyrolytic or hard-coat coatings that require significantly less energy to produce than soft coated glass), or our wide range of solar and thermal control glass products, Pilkington is proud to lead in areas of environmental consciousness, sustainable building, and green building initiatives.
