Float Glass production tools represent a heavy investment over a long term period.

Throughout the entire campaign, the Float furnace at the head of the production line must ensure :

• Quality glass production at low operating cost
• Consistent and safe operation within the local environmental constraints
• Ability to adapt quickly to the market shift.

In order to achieve these targets which are a must for a good return on investment, Saint-Gobain SEFPRO provides the suitable refractories solutions like:

• The "Dalles-Ersol" concept for melter bottom pavings with ER 1681 Dalle TJ tight-joints.
• Super low exudation fused-cast AZS ER 2001 SLX and fused-cast Alumina Jargal H for superstructure, to improve glass quality and furnace output.
• Cruciform Regenerator Packing solutions, allowing the highest levels of thermal efficiency, high resistance to corrosion and reduced risk of plugging
• A full range of unshaped materials
