1 year, 7 months agoGlass has been our passion for over a hundred years. We use its innovative potential to offer the best solutions.
As a dynamic, growing family-run business, our work has been centred around glass, a truly fascinating material, for over 100 years. During this time we have grown from operating a single workshop in our local area to now being Europe’s biggest glass manufacturer and processor, employing around 6,000 people across 70 locations. Swiss quality, excellent service and reliable partnerships are just some of our core values.
Our float glass, which we produce in-house, is where our value chain begins. It forms the basis of many different types of architectural glass, which are used in the construction of façades, windows, roofs and internal spaces. Whether you are seeking optimal energy efficiency, anti-reflective views, noise reduction, or burglar-proof, bird-friendly and fire-resistant products: our range of intelligent glass solutions has something for everyone.
We also produce various types of innovative technical glass in our highly automated factories, which are used for laboratory and medical devices and in many other sectors. Our high-quality glass also helps keep passengers on aeroplanes, cars and trains safe.
A company is only ever as good as its employees. And we are no different. This is why we help our employees to achieve their goals and ensure everyone benefits from an enjoyable working environment, because we are confident that each and every individual can achieve great things when working with us.
We’re confident that each and every one of us can make a big difference. As a result, we’ll stay 'Green for Generations' for centuries to come.
We have chosen to focus on four core areas:
• We develop glass that reduces the energy consumption of buildings
• We produce our glass using ever less energy over time
• We do everything in our power to maintain a clean environment and to protect it
• We support our customers in constructing sustainable buildings
Our growth may be dynamic, but our attitude to sustainability is consistent.
