Single-use plastic pollution has become one of the main challenges that have to be solved globally in terms of industrial sustainability in current years. This has been achieved mainly by ensuring 100% plastic recycling, composting or reuse with global initiatives such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s U.S Plastics Pact and WWF.
However, sectors like construction, the second largest consumer of plastic and responsible for 23% of total plastic waste, have not yet been included in most of these initiatives.
That is why we created Glasst Protector Universal, an easy-to-apply liquid coating that allows you to save time and cost overruns in the final stages of your project while eliminating the use of single-use materials. Here are five advantages of the product that contribute to the care of the environment and your projects.
Save time and cost overruns with an environmentally friendly product
Glasst Universal Protector will protect your surfaces from stains, scratches, light bumps, chemicals and welding sparks, among others that generate additional costs for your project.
At the same time, with our product, you replace plastic sheets, cardboard, liquid plastics and other materials traditionally used in industry. This allows you to reduce a high percentage of total waste at the end of the project, be efficient with completion times and reduce disposable material costs.
Contribute to environmental recovery with biodegradable products
This ecological protector is an effective solution to protect finishes and surfaces while contributing to worksite sustainability. Since it is made with a biodegradable elastic component, it optimizes subsequent cleaning costs and facilitates correct waste disposal once the work is finished thus contributing to the environment.
Our product takes only 3 to 5 years to degrade, while traditional materials such as plastic can take up to 150 years to decompose.
Qualify for international sustainability certifications
The use of Glasst Universal Protector gives your work credibility and allows you to score points to apply for national and international sustainability certifications.
Due to its biodegradable compostable nature, our product qualifies for LEED and CASA certifications in environmental and energy design leadership, as well as sustainable housing design.
Take care of your team’s health with a safe product
Protect your work team with a product that is easy to apply and remove, which also has a useful 6-month shelf life for exteriors and 12 months for interiors, thus reducing the number of product applications needed for the project.
Our protector is organic, compostable and biodegradable, which is harmless to your collaborators’ health and the environment.
Save time and cost overruns on subsequent cleanups
You save up to 50% of the time spent cleaning surfaces because of concrete stains, stucco and scratches or damage to glass and other surfaces. This way you will not have cost overruns in material repair, replacement or disposal at the end of your project.
