Coatings for glass manufacturers

We are committed to offering glass manufacturers the best possible solutions, adapted to their production lines. With Certincoat^® and Tegoglas^® grades, glass makers can access a whole range of coatings and equipment to help them optimise manufacturing quality and yield.

Our brands help the glass industry achieve:

Protection from scratching and reduction of breakage on conveyer lines
Durability during transportation and handling
Better lubricity in thin-walled, lightweight glass containers
Flexible cold-end coating for labeling glues.

Coatings for returnable glass bottles

Fillers using returnable glass bottles always struggle with unattractive, scuffed bottles that reduce the lifespan of the container. To preserve the lifespan and appearance of returnable bottles, we have developed solutions to delay the formation of scuff rings and to mask those that have formed : Opticoat^® and Kercoat^®.

Thanks to these two solutions, returnable bottles are in use at least twice as long – 40 cycles instead of 20 – while keeping them attractive to consumers
