Igniting progress in the glass industry

Step Change is a relatively new part of the Glass Performance Days (GPD) 2023 conference. This year, it brought together visionary glass pioneers for the third time since its inception. The Velux Group joined Glaston in hosting this special event. Twelve start-ups were also involved. Which ones? Find out here:

First introduced by Glaston at GPD 2017, Step Change has in the meantime been established for fostering innovations across the glass industry value chain. It wants to serve as a bridge between ambitious start-up and scale-up entrepreneurs and industry professionals from around the globe.

The programme continued with 12 presentations from each of the participating companies. Along with bringing their innovations to the personalized and eco-conscious booths, each company had a chance to present its innovation from the stage to a crowd of glass business professionals and enthusiasts.

These are the start-ups that were present

2MH Glas

2MH Glas presented their patented rapid ion exchange technologies that enhance the sustainability and performance of glass products. In just 5 minutes, rapid ion exchange achieves the same strength as the traditional process after several hours. This innovation is all about making glass more affordable, thinner and lighter, while also more resistant to scratches and breakage.

AeroShield Materials

AeroShield Materials introduced their transparent silica aerogels that enhance the performance of insulated glass. These lightweight materials offer superior thermal insulation, fire resistance and a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional glass.
