O-I is edging closer to the final steps of equipping one of the furnaces at its Veauche, France, plant with hybrid-flex technology, the first in O-I’s footprint.
The Veauche plant serves the premium market and already uses a very high level of recycled glass during production. This leading-edge furnace innovation, along with a new heat-recovery system, will turn this historic location into a modern high-tech glassmaking facility.
