Technical glass

The world of technical glass differs from the rest of the glass industry both in terms of its technologies and production processes (furnaces, forming, etc.), and in the performance characteristics that the products must guarantee. Stazione Sperimentale del Vetro supports the entire glass tubing production chain, acting as a competent partner in the development and innovation of products and production processes, as well as an analytical and certification partner.
