Greater technology

Glass has become stronger, is produced in many forms and with diverse properties. Such as solar protection, anti-reflection and optical glass fibres. Solvay provides active counselling on raw materials and additives for technical glassmaking processes.

Soda products

Soda ash is an essential raw material in the glassmaking process. These materials play an essential role in reducing furnace temperatures by many hundreds of degrees. Glassmaking would not be viable without them.
