Taylor Made Systems plans to further expand its manufacturing capabilities by investing in a horizontal glass furnace.
Gloversville, New York-based Taylor Made Systems has received corporate approval to further expand its glass manufacturing capabilities by making an investment in a high throughput, horizontal glass furnace.
The horizontal furnace will have a wide range of capabilities, including the ability to bend small and large glass shapes to nearly any radius, with no specific tooling, while producing finished, tempered, tong-free product. The furnace will be capable of producing low to high volumes of glass economically.
“This is a state-of-the-art piece of equipment that will insure Taylor Made and all of our many OEM partners stay well in front of the competition,” said Al Petit, president of Taylor Made Systems. “By giving us the go-ahead to make this capital investment, our corporate office has guaranteed that Taylor Made will continue to be the market leader in glazing products.”
A member of Taylor Made Group, LLC, Taylor Made Systems, together with partner Trend Marine Products Limited, is the world’s largest manufacturer of marine glazing systems and framed-glass windshield technology for powerboats. Other marine product lines include manual and power-actuated doors, roofs, window systems, skylights and hatches. The company also supplies glass products for a variety of agricultural, construction, mass transit and emergency vehicle applications.
