Glazing Solutions Built for Boston's Energy Future.
Boston's building performance requirements are changing fast. We help GCs and developers stay ahead — with high-performance glazing systems designed for BERDO 2.0 compliance, Massachusetts Stretch Code, and net-zero targets.
— The Compliance Landscape
What's changing — and why glazing matters.
BERDO 2.0
Boston's Building Emissions Reduction and Disclosure Ordinance now sets binding emissions limits for existing commercial buildings. Reporting begins in 2025, with penalties that escalate as targets tighten through 2050. For owners of older office and lab stock, the envelope is one of the largest variables on the table.
Massachusetts Stretch Code
New construction across most Massachusetts municipalities is now governed by the Stretch Code — and an opt-in Specialized Code that pushes performance even further. Both raise the bar on envelope performance, fenestration U-values, and overall energy use intensity.
Why glazing is high-leverage
The envelope drives heating and cooling loads more than almost any other decision a building team makes. Choosing the right glazing system early unlocks compliance, reduces mechanical sizing, and protects daylighting and tenant experience — the things owners actually care about.

Our Solution: A Luxwall Partnership.
Luxwall's Enthermal™ panels deliver exceptional thermal performance — up to R-20+ — in a slim curtainwall profile. The result: a glazing system that performs like an insulated wall, in places only glass can go.
- Ideal for both new construction and retrofit applications
- Helps buildings achieve net zero and Passive House targets
- Preserves daylighting and architectural intent
