BENGglas insulates up to three times better than HR++ glass — and for up to 50 years. Frame replacement? Not necessary! Discover what BENGglas can do for you.
BENGglas vacuum glass consists of two glass panes at least 3 mm thick with a vacuum space of just 0.3 mm between them. This vacuum almost completely eliminates heat transfer through conduction and convection, achieving an insulation value of U=0.35 W/m²K with fewer glass layers and less weight.
This delivers an insulation value up to 3× better than HR++ glass, while the glass — with a thickness from just 6.7 mm — almost always fits existing frames. This saves on materials, labour costs and preserves the authentic appearance of listed buildings. Independently tested by ift Rosenheim (2025).
BENGglas was founded in 2019, drawing on the knowledge and experience of GIGAglas — active in international safety glass for over 30 years.
BENGglas® combines superior thermal and acoustic performance in a format that fits every frame. No other insulation glass in the world offers this combination of values together with a lifespan of up to 50 years.
Uglass=0.34 W/m²K — the best insulation value on the market. Independently tested by ift Rosenheim (2025). Maximum energy savings and CO₂ reduction.
Glass thickness from just 6.7 mm. Replace single or double glazing without frame adaptation. Also suitable for wider aluminium profiles via BENGglas Hybrid — where you choose the glass thickness and type of BENGglas yourself. Save on costs and avoid unnecessary new materials.
Standard −36 dB sound reduction for a quieter indoor environment. In the hybrid laminated variant, sound insulation rises to −41 dB. Ideal for homes on busy roads, inner-city locations and care facilities.
Standard tempered glass — 5× stronger than ordinary glass and resistant to thermal breakage. Safe against injury in accordance with NEN 3569. Also available fall-safe (1B1) and burglar-resistant (P4A). Exception: the 6.7 mm variant is heat-strengthened glass.
Expected lifespan of 50 years with less material use and CO₂ emissions than conventional insulation glass. With up to 20 years warranty available.
Considerably lighter than triple glass. Save on heavy hardware fittings. Fits even the thinnest profiles and lightweight frame constructions.
Available specifically with historic drawn glass (BENGglas® Monu). Preserve the original appearance of listed buildings while drastically improving the insulation value.
Through the ISDE scheme you receive € 25/m² for glass replacement, € 111/m² when also replacing frames, or € 46/m² for national monuments. Discover the options at www.bengglas.nl.
BENGglas® is the only insulation glass that simultaneously meets the requirements of renovation (fits existing frames), restoration (historic glass available) and new construction (BENG standard compliance).
BENGglas offers the right vacuum glass solution for every project — from the best insulation and solar control to burglar-resistant, sound-dampening, hybrid, fire-resistant (Pyroguard), extra clear or heritage glass. All in accordance with applicable standards. Do you have specific requirements not covered here? BENGglas is happy to think along with you via info@bengglas.nl.
Specially for listed buildings and historic properties. Preserve the authentic appearance of the frame with superior insulation.
Energy-generating vacuum glass. Combines superior insulation with solar cells — ideal for energy-positive construction.
BENGglas® vacuum glass can be combined with additional properties for special applications.
Combine vacuum technology with a laminating film (PVB or SGP) for fall safety (1B1) or burglar resistance (P4A). Superior insulation and safety in one.
BENGglas® PyroVac® combines the insulation performance of vacuum glass with fire resistance. For applications where fire safety and energy performance meet.
Available with patterned glass for extra privacy or decorative applications. Ideal for bathrooms, staircases and interiors where light admission and aesthetics are central.
Combines vacuum glass with an additional glass layer — for wider aluminium profiles or higher insulation and sound requirements. You choose the glass thickness and type of BENGglas yourself.
