RESEARCH: ECO-FRIENDLY AND ENERGY EFFICIENT GLASS
This is the final week, though research can still be achievable before the exhibition of my project. An idea came to my mind regarding using glass as a way to follow my project main purpose, having ecological, cost-effective, and sustainable ends.
After visiting some websites that talked about Eco-friendly and cost-effective glass that can be used as windows for any kind of residential, I came to the conclusion that the best one for this project is VELFAC.
An specialised type of glass created out of recycled materials with the purpose of limit the human impact on the environment when creating glass.
