About Us
Glass is the quitessential building material of the 21st century, and glass is everywhere you look.
Glass can be energy efficient, self-cleaning and architecturally uplifting. No other building material can bring the outside environment into a building to improve the amenity of the space. Glass is vital.
The Australian glass and glazing industry is a thriving, dynamic and rapidly evolving environment. That's why those that engage in best standards practice, those that commit to safety, and those that drive innovation are members of the Australian Glass & Glazing Association.
The AGGA is a peak industry body which brings together over 600 manufacturers, importers, processors, installers, glaziers and suppliers to the building and window industry.
The Australian Glass & Glazing Association (AGGA) promotes and encourages the trade and business interests of members of the AGGA. But that's not all we do.
The AGGA promotes and encourages glass trade and provides information and advocacy services on all aspects of glass from energy efficiency to standards and safety.
