The glass manufacturing company Viracon has developed a unique type of glass known as their 'Bird Friendly Glass.' This glass features printed patterns, which can be barely visible to the human eye, but make a world of difference to our avian friends. This special patterned glass allows birds to see the windows, preventing bird collisions.


Safe Spaces: Real-Life Success Stories

The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City is a great example of how we can make a difference in the lives of our feathered friends. The center saw a significant decrease in bird deaths by a staggering 90% after installing Viracon's Bird Friendly Glass. The convention center's unique design, which includes a bird habitat on its green roof, attracts a variety of bird species. The use of bird-safe Glass has made the building a haven for these birds, providing them with safe spaces to rest and feed, without the risk of colliding with the glass. This success story is a testament to the incredible impact that Bird Friendly Glass can have on our ecosystem and the importance of incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly elements into our structures.
