Electric melting and conditioning systems specialist Electroglass has successfully commissioned the latest in a series of all-electric distributor and forehearth installations for the Gerresheimer group.

A further Electroglass distributor and three forehearths have already been delivered to a third Gerresheimer plant, and are due to be commissioned in the coming months.

We have supplied a total of 11 distributor and forehearth channels to this leading glass making group,” said Electroglass Managing Director Richard Stormont, citing it as “another example of the trend to electric in both melting and conditioning, typically driven by major energy consumption and cost savings, emissions reductions and glass quality requirements.”
