From Energy Conservation to Generation… Cardinal Shares Your Environmental Vision

Our roots are in energy-conserving products. We are the leading supplier of energy-efficient coated glass for residential windows and doors. Once these products have been installed, our entire carbon footprint is neutralized within the first twelve months.

Cardinal Solar Technologies is now bringing that same dedication to environmental responsibility to the production of glass, thin film coatings and systems for the solar industry.

All Cardinal SolarFloat glass plants meet or exceed Federal EPA emission standards. At full capacity, our Winlock, Washington plant has the lowest emissions per ton of glass shipped of any conventional float glass plant in the world. We are the glass industry leader in controlling and reducing waste:

• Cullet recycling prevents more than 150,000 tons of broken glass from being discarded
• Corrugated packaging is reused or recycled
• Plastic stretch wrap materials are recycled
• Steel reusable racks and glass packs save the construction and disposal of more than 500,000 wooden boxes per year
