EPD: Insulating glass unit, 280 mm, 30.78 kg/m2, Sun® LamiGlass 44.1/6-24/4 (Guardian Select® Group Limited)

An insulating glass unit (IGU), also called double (or triple) glazing, is the assembly of two (or three) panes of glass separated by a spacer profile and sealed together, creating tight chamber inside. This chamber can include air or gas, in our case gas is not included. This unit provides greater thermal and acoustic insulation than single glazing. Adding Guardian Glass high performance glass to this unit further enhances the thermal insulation and solar control performance of double or triple glazed units, contributing to a more efficient enclosure. Provided this insulating glass unit is properly manufactured. Gas is not included in this study.
