LEADUS Showcases High-Performance Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG) at Shanghai Climate Week 2026

▌ Global Climate Action: Shaping Green "New Paradigms"

Recently, LEADUS was invited to participate in the "Climate Lighthouse" series of events at Shanghai Climate Week 2026. Themed around "New Paradigms," this year's Climate Lighthouse series focused on green and low-carbon transition, technological empowerment, industrial synergy, and case co-creation, aiming to bridge low-carbon technologies, industrial resources, and application scenarios to drive sustainable development from conceptual advocacy to practical implementation.

During the event, Dr. Aotian Song, Chairman of LEADUS, attended the launching ceremony of the "Climate Lighthouse Innovation Platform" on behalf of the company. He also joined a high-level panel discussion themed "AI-Empowered Intelligent Manufacturing—Crafting Optimal Solutions." Alongside leading experts, institutions, and corporate representatives from green low-carbon technology, intelligent manufacturing, and sustainable development sectors, they jointly explored pathways for technological innovation and industrial synergy in the context of climate action.

▌ Panel Insights: Intelligent Manufacturing & Low-Carbon Envelopes

Focusing on industrial precision, LEADUS has long been dedicated to the technology and industrial application of Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG), consistently mapping out its layout around vacuum glass products, intelligent manufacturing equipment, and systemic solutions. Driven by a solid scientific heritage, the company has completed the loop from laboratory research to large-scale manufacturing and global engineering deployment.

▌ Technical Anchor: High-Performance Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG)

As a highly actionable technical path for transparent building envelopes, LEADUS VIG utilizes a vacuum layer to block heat transfer, significantly reducing building energy footprint:

•  Thermal Performance: Achieves U-values as low as U < 0.3 W/(m²·K) (V6 configuration with Triple Silver Low-E), offering thermal resistance comparable to solid insulated walls.

•  Metal Edge Sealing: Our proprietary lead-free metal edge sealing technology ensures high seal integrity, eliminating stress concentration to guarantee a lifespan of >25 years.

•  Ultra-Thin & Lightweight: With a minimum thickness of 6.2mm (V1 configuration), it seamlessly integrates into energy retrofits for existing building facades without replacing original frames.

•  Acoustic Performance: Delivers a sound reduction of >40 dB, blocking low-frequency urban noise and enhancing occupant well-being.

LEADUS VIG Core Spec Comparison:

▌ Case Study: Glazing Retrofit & Low-Carbon Facades

•  Challenge: How to meet strict net-zero building standards in historical retrofits and skyscraper glazing without compromising architectural transparency and natural lighting?

•  Solution: Deploy LEADUS VIG units. The ultra-thin profile and outstanding U-values allow direct installation into exterior windows, curtain walls, and retrofit projects.

•  Data Anchor A (30% - 50%): HVAC energy consumption reduced by 30%-50% compared to traditional double/triple pane glazing.

•  Data Anchor B (100% Flat Surface): Zero-port design completely eliminates traditional evacuation port bumps, ensuring a 100% pristine and flat facade aesthetic.

▌ Vision: Joint Research & Global Scale-Up

Looking ahead, LEADUS will continue to center its efforts on high-performance vacuum glass technology, deepening industry-university-research synergy to accelerate VIG scale-up across diverse green building scenarios. LEADUS remains committed to exploring new models of low-carbon technology implementation with global partners, contributing scientific and technological strength to green building advancement and carbon transition.
