Glenn Carlton

Architectural Design Manager - ANZ, Guardian Glass

Glenn Carlton is the Architectural Design Manager for Guardian Glass, responsible for the Australia and New Zealand region. Glenn’s professional life has been within the construction industry, having spent 10 years working on high-performance façade systems, and the last 5 years promoting the virtues of High-Performance glazing and greater sustainability in building materials.

Glenn is Guardian’s Sustainability lead for the Asia Pacific region, ensuring Guardian has a range of products that comply with the Responsible Products Framework of Green Star Buildings (the first glass manufacturer to do so). Additionally, he has developed alternative supply chains to deliver these Green Star-compliant glazing systems, whilst limiting the cost premiums typically associated.

One of Glenn’s current projects is working with a team of colleagues exploring how Guardian can increase product circularity by incorporating higher volumes of recycled glass from the Australian and New Zealand markets back into architectural glass production. This includes products that have traditionally been difficult to recycle such as coated and laminated glass.

Glenn is very much looking forward to speaking about all things façade with the attendees at this years ZAK World of Facades, Sydney.
