Saint-Gobain and LuxWall Partner on Transparent Insulation Solution
Saint-Gobain and LuxWall have announced a partnership to bring INSIO next generation vacuum glazing to the European market. Through this collaboration, Saint-Gobain Glass will integrate LuxWall’s transparent insulation technology into its INSIO solution, marking a milestone in the transition to energy-efficient building envelopes.
LuxWall’s transparent insulation technology helps glass go from one of the largest sources of energy loss into a high-performing solution for energy conservation. The integration with Saint-Gobain Glass’s INSIO solution represents a step toward enhanced building performance with measurable reductions in energy costs and capital expenditure.
Energy loss through windows and glass façades accounts for roughly 40% of buildings’ heating and cooling demand, according to Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction. By pairing Saint-Gobain Glass’s global expertise and scale with LuxWall’s transparent insulation innovation, the INSIO solution aims to help building owners, architects and developers reduce energy waste without compromising design or daylighting.
What company leadership says
“We are delighted to partner with LuxWall, bringing two innovative companies together in order to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient buildings and retrofit solutions,” says Nicolas Mondy, Vice President of the Glass Performance
Segment of Saint-Gobain. “INSIOTM will allow us to support our customers to address building decarbonization challenge while enhancing window conception possibilities without compromising on tenant comfort.”
“Our mission at LuxWall has always been to reduce building energy consumption and carbon emissions at a price point that enables universal access for all,” says Scott Thomsen, CEO and Founder of LuxWall. “Partnering with Saint-Gobain Glass
enables us to bring this mission to life on a global scale. Together, we’re transforming the building envelope from an energy liability into an essential asset for a sustainable future.”
