Afghanistan's construction sector currently faces a transition from traditional masonry to modern glazed facades. Due to the extreme continental climate—characterized by scorching summers and freezing winters—there is a critical need for dual low e glass to reduce thermal transfer and lower energy costs in urban centers like Kabul.
The local market has historically relied on standard float glass, but as architectural ambitions grow, the demand for specialty products such as clear glass low iron is rising to support luxury commercial developments and government buildings that require maximum light transmission.
Supply chain logistics in Afghanistan remain a challenge, making the durability and quality of imported glass sheets paramount. Contractors are increasingly seeking white coated glass to improve solar reflection and interior climate control during peak summer radiation.
