Latest issue: September 2023
Welcome to the September 2023 issue which focuses on the topic of decarbonisation in glassmaking.
We all saw the consequences of global warming this summer with devastating wildfires, storms and floods around the globe.
Society, particularly heavy industry, has to shift its addiction from fossil fuels to renewable forms of energy.
The glass industry is making huge strides when it comes to decarbonising. The September issue focuses on some of the latest developments in the sector, with contributions from Pyrex, AGC Glass Europe, Celsian and Zippe among others.
The edition contains a story from Kosovo and the efforts of two environmentally conscious men to set up the country’s first glass recycling facility.
Elsewhere we hear from South Korea’s SGC Solutions and its recent investments in glassmaking, while we also celebrate NSG’s Graham Unwin for his recent award from Glass Service for his contributions to the industry.
