About the NSG Group
As a global glass manufacturer,
the NSG Group supports future lifestyles.
We have developed Automotive solar control glazings that reduce heat entering vehicles by approximately 20 per cent when compared to a car equipped with standard tinted glass. They help improve fuel consumption by lowering the load on vehicle's air-conditioning units.

More than 2,000 young trees have been planted around our Caçapava plant in Brazil, with a similar scheme in São Paulo. They improve our sites visually and reduce the 'heat island' effect of large areas of concrete and asphalt.

Improving energy efficiency is key to the European Union’s energy and climate policy. Buildings are a priority and our energy-efficient products will help the EU meet its target to reduce Europe’s CO2 emissions by 20 per cent by 2020.

The NSG Group’s Automotive business works closely with vehicle manufacturers in the development of automotive glazing products that meet environmental demands, particularly in the important areas of vehicle end-of-life and recycling. Safety factors are key in vehicle glazing system design.

Having launched a new global management structure in April 2007, the NSG Group is moving forward into a new era. The physical scope of the Group's business operations has expanded worldwide, and now encompasses the core areas of Japan and Europe as well as North America and other regions.
Against a backdrop of growing expectations and increasing challenges, the NSG Group will work to ensure that the core value of "people are the most important asset of our company" is one that all its employees around the world share as they strive to meet stakeholders' expectations.
