Consulting services and glass technology support


Glass manufacturing is very complex. Even the most experienced glass manufacturer faces tough challenges that are difficult to overcome. Due to its complexity, theoretical knowledge and a fundamental scientific understanding of glass and glass production is absolutely needed, combined with vast practical experience and expertise. Thanks to our assistance to glass manufacturers in dozens of countries (from Armenia, Bulgaria, Chile...to Zimbabwe) we built up unique expertise in glass production. We know the differences between theory, R&D and practice; between a crucible in a lab melting test and a melting & fining process in a glass furnace; between furnace modelling, a CFD simulation and reality; how production should run and how it’s really running...
We are pleased to offer you ‘glass technology knowledge in practice’ based upon our +30 years of glass technology experience and expertise.
