The SCHOLLGLAS Group based in Germany, is a major European manufacturer of flat glass products, and has recently installed a new, state-of-the-art insulating glass production line at its facility in Nossen, Germany.
SCHOLLGLAS has been a pioneer in thermoplastic spacer technology since 1996, when it began producing its first insulating glass units using this system. Building on decades of experience, the company chose Forel as its technological partner for this crucial investment, recognising the performance credentials of Forel machinery and the consistency in delivering high quality finished product.
The unique line configuration maximises efficiency, flexibility, and long-term performance, and represents a key milestone in the SCHOLLGLAS Group’s industrial development strategy.
The recently installed system, known as High Tech Jumbo, extends over an impressive 96 meters. More than a production line, it’s a fully customised engineering solution, designed specifically through a close collaboration between SCHOLLGLAS and the Forel development team.
The line integrates multiple operating modules in a sequential and highly optimised configuration, ensuring outstanding product quality while delivering tangible advantages in terms of output productivity and process control.
With this investment in a Forel insulating glass line featuring dual thermoplastic application, SCHOLLGLAS sends a clear message to the market. The integration of patented solutions such as the Buffer and Alignment solution with advanced performance and diagnostic system, serves to strengthens the Group’s leadership position, providing the delivery of high-performance insulating glass products distinguished by thermal efficiency, durability and customisation.
