Architectural
Typically producing soda lime glass ribbons, our float glass tin bath can be adapted to suit a range of thicknesses up to 25 mm and a maximum pull up to 1,200 tpd. Designed for maximum reliability and the highest glass quality.
Automotive
Automotive laminated glass is particularly demanding in terms of optical quality. In order to maintain the line pull and to produce ever thinner glass, an extra wide ribbon is the solution - our tin baths can be designed for a width up to 5 meters.
ultra-thin
With ribbon thicknesses down to 0.33 mm, width close to 5 m and difficult forming - for the ultra-thin tin bath configuration, all details matter. Engineered to take into account: vibrations, thermal insulation and atmosphere management.
