Oceania Glass was pleased to recently welcome Glassworks Aust. to the company’s floatline at Dandenong South, Victoria and display the art of architectural glass making in Australia.

Following the visit, Michael Kruger, General Manager at Glassworks Aust. commented. “The team from Glassworks Aust. were really appreciative of the tour of the float plant and found it very informative. The sheer-scale of the operation and the length of a campaign (over 20 years, non-stop) particularly stood out to everyone."

“It’s great to see that we have all the infrastructure required (equipment, natural resources and ‘know-how’) in Australia to add-value and produce a world-class product. It was also fantastic to see the process of not only producing float glass from raw materials, but also the technology used to coat glass to make it an energy efficient product. We make use of Oceania Glass energy efficient products when producing our Low-E double glazed units that end up in people’s homes and offices to make them more comfortable and sustainable environments."

“We all really enjoyed seeing the process first-hand and the passionate people that make it happen every day. For us at Glassworks Aust., we’ve had a long-standing (15+ year) partnership with Oceania Glass and the tour re-iterated to us how pivotal it is having a local Victorian manufacturer of building products just down the road.”
