Manufacturing Process

• Raw materials for glass (silica sand, calcium oxide, soda and magnesium) is weighted and mixed before being melted in furnace at 1500ºC.
   
• The raw materials blend and form large pool of molten glass. The molten glass then flows into a molten bath of tin in a continuous manner.
   
• Due to glass's viscous property and tin's fluid property, the two materials do no mix.
   
• Molten glass forms a floating ribbon that is perfectly flat and glossy on both sides with uniform thickness for the entire ribbon.
   
• Machines are used in the process to control thickness and width of glass.
   
• Molten glass is left to cool till it can be lifted and transported on rollers and be cooled by passing through the lehr.
   
• Glass once cooled is cut by machines to the required sizes.
