The deal includes a Glaston FC Series™ tempering furnace and a ProL™ laminating line and is valued at approximately EUR 2.7 million. The machines will be delivered to the customer during the first half of 2018. The order is booked in Glaston’s Q4/2017 order book and is part of Glaston’s expected order intake for the quarter.

As a full-range supplier with strict quality standards from production to delivery, Glas Gasperlmair processes significantly more than 300 tons of glass per day for a wide variety of applications using state-of-the-art machinery.

For more than 20 years, Glas Gasperlmair has relied on Glaston glass processing equipment.
