H.E. Mr John Marshall, British Ambassador to the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, joined Guardian Glass in Europe leadership for a tour of Guardian’s float glass plant in Bascharage on 14 June 2016
The Ambassador was accompanied by Mr Thomas Flammant, Trade & Investment Adviser and Mrs Yvonne White, Deputy Head of Mission at the British Embassy.
Joined by Guardian Europe Vice President Guus Boekhoudt, Regional Operations Support Manager James Walker and Jean Ries, Senior Advisor Guardian Europe, the guests witnessed firsthand the full float glass manufacturing process from the batch house, where the raw materials are stored and mixed, through the furnace, melting and cooling process, and finally to glass cutting and packing.
Guardian Glass Bascharage Plant
Guardian first entered Europe in 1981 with the float glass plant in Bascharage. Today its European business has 10 float glass plants across Europe and Russia and more than 4,000 employees.
The Bascharage plant was Guardian’s first float glass plant outside the United States. Since then the plant has grown considerably both in capacity and capabilities. In 1984 the plant added a tempered glass production line and an advanced magnetron sputter coater designed for production of reflective and low-emissivity coated products. In 1987 a second sputter coater was added to meet customers growing needs for high performance value-added glass.
