The aim of the project is to create an innovative product and implement ecological solutions through R&D activities.
The building facade renovation practices currently prevailing in the market are mostly limited to complete glass replacement, where old glass units are removed and replaced with new ones. Although technologically simple, this method generates a huge amount of glass waste and causes high carbon dioxide emissions, as the production of new glass is an extremely energy-intensive process. Another alternative is glass remelting, which reduces the amount of raw materials needed for facade renovation but requires no less energy than the production of new glass.
In order to address these market challenges, UAB Glassbel Baltic is initiating a project aimed at developing innovative technologies for renovating energy-inefficient building facades while retaining existing glass elements and transforming them into more energy-efficient solutions.
The project is financed under the 2022–2030 Economic Transformation and Competitiveness Development Program, Progress Measure No. 05-001-01-04-02 “Encouraging companies to move towards a climate-neutral economy” activity “Creating conditions for the sustainable transformation of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises” project description and the conditions and procedures set out in the Project Administration and Financing Rules.
The total value of the project is EUR 940.011
The project will be financed by the EU investment program for 2021–2027 - EUR 469.200
The project promoter's own funds - EUR 470.811
The project shall be implemented from 1 June 2025 to 29 July 2028.
