Glaston has closed a deal with long-time Austrian customer Glas Gasperlmair.

delivered to the customer during the first half of 2018. The order is booked in

the quarter.

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. To fulfill the increasing demand for safety glass the company
decided to invest in yet another FC Series furnace, a product that is
well-known for for high capacity, energy efficiency, built-in process

products. The ProL, with recipe-free process and flexible loadings, will
replace an older unit. This new deal further strengthens the company's product
range giving Glas Gasperlmair an unique position in Austria. 

The previous deal with Glas Gasperlmair was closed in November 2016 when the
company bought a  ProBend bending and tempering furnace. In addition, Glas
Gasperlmair also operates four Glaston FC Series furnaces.
