Magna Glaskeramik

MAGNA Glaskeramik is a 100% recycled glass material that can be fully reintroduced into the glass production cycle at the end of its service life. Developed for the construction, architecture, and design sectors, it combines functional performance with a high degree of creative flexibility. Manufactured in Germany under strict quality standards, it is offered as raw panels—up to 2800 × 1250 mm in size (or up to 3500 × 1500 mm on request) with a standard thickness of 20 mm (15–40 mm available on request)—or as custom-cut pieces for diverse applications, including interiors and façades.

The material is produced from industrial glass waste generated during the manufacture of flat, solar, coloured, or bottle glass. Approximately 5% of glass production results in rejects, production faults, or excess volumes. These are collected, broken into shards, and processed through a controlled sintering method without binders or pressure, using only heat and time. The resulting sheets are cooled in a regulated process, then calibrated, optionally polished, and cut to size. Each panel is unique, with distinctive details and translucent qualities that are enhanced when backlit.

Sustainability is central to MAGNA Glaskeramik’s production. A significant portion of the required energy is supplied by the company’s own solar power system, and water used in manufacturing is recycled and reused multiple times. The product is certified with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and Cradle to Cradle credentials, contributing to credits in LEED and DGNB certified buildings. These attributes make it a valuable choice for sustainable construction projects.

All production takes place at the company’s facility in Teutschenthal, Germany, where process stability and reliability are ensured through advanced technological expertise and comprehensive quality management. The result is a high-quality, environmentally responsible material suitable for a wide range of architectural and design applications.
