Melting

Sand, sodium carbonate and recycled cullet are heated to around 1,700°C for 24 hours to become molten glass.

The glass gob takes shape in our machines, using press-and-blow or blow-and-blow, before annealing.

Advanced inspection machines check every item at every stage, through to wrapping and shipping.

3
Forming
The glass gob takes shape in our machines, using press-and-blow or blow-and-blow processes.
4
Annealing
Reheated in an annealing lehr then cooled gradually, the glass avoids thermal shock.
5
