Since introducing the all-electric furnace 50 years ago and providing boosters for more than 500 fossil-fired furnaces worldwide, SORG has an entire department dedicated to electric melting. The VSM cold top all-electric melter was first patented by the company in 1970. Subsequently, over 100 have been supplied, producing all kinds of glass, especially high quality glassware, while ensuring low energy consumption, low waste gas quantities and a dust-free factory environment.

In many cases, SORG uses electricity to boost the capacity of fossil-fired melters, as well as glass quality. An independent supplier in over 70 countries, these tailor-made systems can be applied to any furnace. Technical development and pre-engineering are included in the quotation phase, together with in-house calculations and design. Technical documentation, maintenance support and a free after-sales service are also provided.

Furthermore, with the need to reduce emissions more important than ever, SORG leads the way towards a more sustainable future for glass melting.
