Pilkington Mirai™ - See the world differently
Mirai, meaning 'future' in Japanese, was developed to mark the start of the next generation of low-carbon glass products to help meet stricter sustainability requirements in the built environment.
Our new low-carbon glass offers a market leading 52% less CO2e* vs our standard glass product achieved by using a combination of alternative fuel, high recycled glass content and green electricity sources.
Pilkington Mirai™ has been independently verified by a third party, certifying it as the lowest carbon glass of its kind.
The independent verification comes from a new Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) now available for Pilkington Mirai™.
Pilkington Mirai™ offers identical quality, performance and aesthetics as Pilkington Optifloat™ Clear, but with only half the impact on the environment.
