Glass production is a very polluting activity that affects the environment. It is mainly the result of three key factors in glass production: atmospheric emissions, wastewater pollution and poor solid waste disposal.

Regarding emissions, these are the most polluting factors associated with glass production. Glass is manufactured at high temperatures in furnaces that release 80-90% of atmospheric pollutants emissions into the atmosphere during production.

This contributes greatly to the generation of greenhouse gases, since most industries operate 24-hour non-stop production processes, with minimal maintenance breaks. In other words, they never stop releasing smoke.

The impact of wastewater on the environment, although one of the smallest in the industry, is significant.

Likewise, these discharges can be affected by certain chemical materials that are passed into water during glass processing.

Recovering or reusing something will always be a better option to protect the environment than to generate a new one from scratch.

Regarding solid waste, solid-waste disposal pollution mainly occurs during transportation and can be prevented keeping receiving areas clean and preventing incoming waste from mixing with waste produced in the plant or previously stored.

Even with these pollution factors, the use of glass itself is one of the eco-friendliest. It is one of the few materials in industry that can be recovered 100%.

In addition, it can be processed several times, making it even a more valuable sustainable product.

Even with all this, at Glasst Innovation Company, we focus on going beyond standard solutions, always seeking innovation and technology to obtain more optimal results to challenge industry’s status quo.

That is why, we have developed a glass restoration service to allow you to recover scratched glass fully without having to replace it, with the final purpose of safeguarding the planet and your pocket. This way you save on final project costs or maintenance costs for your home, office or even your vehicle.

In this section, we tell you how we use nanotechnology and special fibers we designed and unique on the market for this purpose.

It will always be much more practical and economical to restore a glass than to replace it. However, the main concern lies on final results when hiring this type of service.

This is why, our Glasst Glass Restoration System uses applied nanotechnology to remove scratches and stains from all types of glass with outstanding results.

To do this, we use active silica mats (the same material used to make glass) and put nanotechnology at your service to achieve results using a combined physical and chemical action to restore your pieces to their original finish and shine.

We do this in four stages:

• Scratches are removed completely through molecule rearrangement creating a cloud-like field.
• The cloud-like field created is faded, removing any scratches from the surface and leaving it ready to begin restoring the gloss.
• We use a different type of plush and a special Silica-based compound to obtain flawless restoration results. Glass looks as good as new without any visible stains or scratches.
• A surface molecule rearrangement is conducted at the end of the process so that the glass is left looking original with no glass distortion.

Our glass restoration system is faster, more effective and more economical than others on the market because of its effective use of technology. That is why it is your best choice when you want to restore damaged glass without having to replace it.

In addition, it can be used on all types of glass in various private and work environments, including tempered, armored, laminated, high impact, raw, curved, thermo-acoustic and mirrors. In other words, you can use it on any glass you want, for your office, your home or even your car.

It is also a greener process than common material deposit, because no residue is generated that can reach the environment or cause visible impact to your glass. This is the result of the use of the latest restoration technologies on the market that do not alter the physical or chemical properties of the glass.

This system also contributes to savings in labor and transportation costs incurred in disassembling a glass as it acts as a much faster solution, reducing risks of cuts or accidents typical of traditional replacement disassembly.

Most importantly, at Glasst, we guarantee process results. We are the ultimate way to change the present for an ideal future.
