Key Exhibits and Innovations
Pilkington Mirai Øne™ is the latest addition to NSG Group’s low-carbon Pilkington Mirai™ range and will be presented alongside Pilkington Mirai™. As a more pragmatic, lower-carbon alternative to standard float glass, Pilkington Mirai Øne™ offers over 35% lower embodied carbon compared with conventional float glass. Easily accessible, it supports current sustainability ambitions while helping to build a foundation for the future, with no compromise on performance, quality or aesthetics.
NSG Group will also unveil further developments within its HomeComfort range, offering visitors the opportunity to experience how glass can actively contribute to indoor comfort. In the dedicated HomeComfort meeting room, visitors can see HeatComfort, LuxComfort, DynamicComfort and SilenceComfort solutions in action, demonstrating how different aspects of comfort can be enhanced through advanced glazing technologies. A key feature of the stand will be an Infrared Glass Radiator – the HeatComfort solution powered by NSG TEC™. Part of the wider HeatComfort range the technology utilises NSG Group's electrically conductive coatings to redefine the concept of comfort.
Visitors will also be able to discover Pilkington AviSafe™, a bird-safe glass solution designed to help reduce birds colliding with the windows and façades of buildings. Featuring a UV enhanced pattern that is significantly more visible to birds than humans, Pilkington AviSafe™ delivers bird-friendly performance whilst ensuring maximum transparency, enabling architects to support biodiversity without compromising aesthetics.
NSG Group will also showcase two decorative glass collections. “Inspired by Nature” brings together a striking range of architectural glass inspired by the colours and tones of natural landscapes, while Texture by Pilkington offers a comprehensive portfolio of rolled patterned glass, providing architects and designers with greater freedom to balance aesthetics, privacy and light transmission.
Exhibit at Glasstec 2026
Visitors to the stand will be able to explore the well-established Pilkington Suncool™ range, in combination with the latest Pilkington Mirai Øne™ lower carbon glass. Demonstrating how high-performance glazing continues to evolve, the display will also feature Pilkington Suncool™ powered by Pilkington DataBoost™. This latest development has been designed to address the challenge of weakened wireless telecommunication signals helping to support reliable indoor connectivity across a wide range of building types without compromising glazing performance.
NSG Group will also highlight the latest addition to its solar control glass range, Pilkington Reflite™ Vista. Combining a bold reflective aesthetic with a uniquely balanced viewing experience from the interior, the product has been developed to meet growing architectural demand. Featuring a durable reflective coating applied to surface #1, Pilkington Reflite™ Vista creates a uniform mirror-like appearance from the exterior while providing a more comfortable and controlled view from within.
A further highlight will be Pilkington OptiView™ Ultra Protect, an extra clear laminated glass with anti-reflective coatings on surfaces #1 and #4, presented in comparison alongside a standard laminated glass Pilkington Optilam™ Clear. The product delivers outstanding transparency with a total visible light reflection reduced to just 1% and enables the best possible viewing properties. Finally, the stand will feature a full height wall of Pilkington Pyrostop® Line fire protection glass. Available in resistance classes from EI 30 to EI 120 the system enables the creation of long panoramic walls with only a thin vertical silicone joint between the panes, and no need for vertical profiles. The result is a highly transparent fire-protection solution that combines safety performance with architectural freedom.
Together, these displays showcase the breadth of innovation across NSG Group. Visitors will be able to discover even more by accessing the company’s online Global Product Directory, which provides an easy way to explore the full range of products, technologies and solutions available worldwide.
The NSG Group team at glasstec looks forward to welcoming customers and visitors interested in discovering how Pilkington glass solutions can support their needs. Visitors are invited to meet the team at booth #10-K15.
