Sustainability at Gatex:

Acting locally, building responsibly.
At GATEX, we are committed to reducing CO₂ emissions and promoting
environmentally responsible practices throughout our fiberglass mesh
production. Our efforts focus on three core areas:
Lower Emissions in Production
Powered by renewable energy—running our plant at Kaçanik with a growing share of clean electricity
Upgraded equipment and optimized workflows have reduced energy use per square meter of mesh produced
Ongoing initiatives include heat recovery, LED lighting, and the planned integration of biogas and electric-driven processes
Sustainable Material Choices
REACH-compliant, our fiberglass mesh uses coatings and raw materials selected for lower environmental impact
Working with suppliers to source more sustainable fibers and coatings, aiming to decrease the carbon footprint of our inputs
Packaging innovations are underway, with recycled materials and optimized formats to minimize waste
Supporting Clients in Reducing CO₂
Our ETICS-grade reinforcement mesh enhances insulation systems, cutting wall heat loss—helping homeowners and builders reduce CO₂ emissions
Projects using our mesh systems contribute to thermal efficiency and long-term energy savings in both new and retrofitted buildings
Our Sustainability Commitments
Certified Climate Neutral production (2022)
Fully REACH Declaration–compliant materials
Compliant with ISO 14001 environmental management standards
ETA, ETAG 004, CE, and TÜV-certified products—ensuring long-term performance with minimal environmental impact

Climate Responsibility at Gatex:

Local action. Global impact.
At GATEX, we recognize the construction sector’s role in environmental sustainability. That’s why our operations and products are purposefully designed to reduce carbon emissions, promote resource efficiency, and support circular thinking—benefiting both people and the planet.
Clean, Efficient Production
Our factory operates on a climate-neutral basis (since 2022), with optimized energy use and reduced CO₂ emissions per m² of mesh produced.
We’ve implemented LED lighting, process heat recovery, and state-of-the-art equipment to enhance energy efficiency.
Plans are already underway to integrate renewable energy sources like solar or bio-energy to further lower our footprint.
Eco-Conscious Materials
Every GATEX product is REACH-compliant, ensuring safe and responsibly sourced materials.
We are actively collaborating with suppliers to introduce lower-carbon fibers and coatings in the production process.
Our packaging is transitioning to recyclable, reduced-waste formats, reflecting our commitment to materials circularity.
Enabling Energy-Efficient Buildings
Our ETICS-grade fiberglass mesh reinforces insulation systems to curb thermal bridging, contributing to significant energy savings in built environments.
By enhancing façade performance, GATEX materials support reduced heating/cooling needs—helping homeowners and builders lower their CO₂ footprint.
Our Environmental & Climate Commitments
Climate Neutral Production since 2022
Fully REACH Declaration–compliant materials
Certified under ISO 14001 for environmental management
ETAG 004, ETA, CE, and TÜV Nord-certified products—engineered for performance and sustainability
Every square meter of GATEX mesh is a step toward cleaner, smarter construction. Discover how we’re reinforcing tomorrow’s buildings—with the planet in mind.
