Join Us! GIFFT Co-Hosts Webinar on Decarbonising the European Glass Industry

The GIFFT project is excited to announce that we are teaming up with our fellow EU-funded projects, H2GLASS and EVERGLASS, to co-host a joint webinar on sustainable glass manufacturing and recycling.

The glass industry is entering a decisive decade on its path toward climate neutrality and circularity. This webinar is a fantastic opportunity to explore how European research and innovation, including the work we are doing at GIFFT, can accelerate this critical transition.

Mark your calendars!

• Date: Tuesday, 2 December 2025

• Time: 14:00–15:30 CET

• Location: Online

What to Expect

This 90-minute session will showcase how collaborative research across different Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) is shaping the future of the European glass industry.

The session will be moderated by Simone Tiozzo (SSV Glass Research Centre) and will feature a keynote address from Bertrand Cazes (Glass for Europe).

We are especially proud that our own Nerijus Striūgas from the Lithuanian Energy Institute will be presenting the GIFFT project, showcasing our work at the intermediate TRL 5 stage.

Project Presentations:

• EVERGLASS – Low TRL (2–3): Presented by Jozef Kraxner (FunGlass, Trencin University)

• GIFFT – Intermediate TRL (5): Presented by Nerijus Striūgas (Lithuanian Energy Institute)

• H2GLASS – High TRL (7): Presented by Chiara Caccamo (SINTEF)

Following the presentations, our experts will join a roundtable discussion to explore common challenges, share best practices, and identify opportunities for future collaboration. The event will conclude with a short wrap-up and a participant questionnaire to gather your input.

Who Should Join?

This event is open to researchers, industry representatives, policymakers, and stakeholders interested in sustainable industrial transformation.

Whether you work in glass manufacturing, the energy transition, or materials innovation, this webinar offers a key opportunity to connect with leading European initiatives shaping the future of the sector.
