Active Glassis heir to the long tradition of glassmaking in Belgium dating back more than one hundred years to 1914. Active Glasshas a worldwide sales network, operates over 100 sites from Spain to Russia and employs 16,500 people in Europe and 54,000 worldwide. Nearly one out of every four buildings is fitted with AGC glass.
It is estimated that 50% of the products that will be sold 10 years from now do not even exist yet today, which is why we devote 50% of our R&D budget to sustainable products, solutions and manufacturing with a focus on safety and health, aesthetics and infotainment/communication.
