The Future of Glass Melting - We’re hosting a free webinar on Wednesday 27th May

, Glass Technology Services

Are you part of the glass packaging supply chain and looking to reduce energy use, emissions, and technical risk in glass production?

We’re hosting a free webinar exploring how glass melting is evolving and how our new furnace capability is enabling more sustainable, data driven innovation before industrial production.

The Future of Glass Melting

Date: Wednesday 27th May

Time: 1:00pm BST

In this session, Gareth Jones (CEO) and Martyn Marshall (Melting & R&D Lead) will examine the changing demands placed on glass melting operations, explain why traditional melting approaches are under pressure, and share how new melting strategies, batch design, and furnace instrumentation can help industry move toward lower carbon glass.

You’ll gain insight into:

Why glass melting is one of the biggest drivers of energy use and emissions

Where heat and efficiency are lost in the melting process

How batch design, particle size, and preparation influence melt performance

The role of cullet, melt aids, and chemical fluxes in reducing energy demand

Opportunities presented by alternative raw materials and new chemistries

What advanced, instrumented melting reveals that lab‑scale tests cannot

How our new HTMOS R&D furnace can support faster, lower‑risk innovation
