A Revolution in Coloured Glass: Modern Alternatives to Traditional Methods
In recent years, the production of coloured glass has undergone a significant transformation. Traditionally, glassmakers faced limitations when creating custom-coloured glass, requiring large minimum order quantities and lengthy production times. Additionally, the colour consistency of traditionally produced coloured glass could be unpredictable, often varying within the same batch.
Traditional Challenges:
- Large Minimum Order Quantities: Customers were often required to purchase entire furnace batches, typically around 100 kilograms, even for smaller quantities.
- Long Lead Times: Securing a furnace for melting specific colours could take several months, significantly impacting production timelines.
- Inconsistent Colours: Variations in colour could occur within the same batch due to technical factors inherent in the glassmaking process.
