The 175 m² End fired furnace for container glass production is most probably the largest one ever built.
HORN supplied already two of them to India for container glass producer HNG – one in Nasik and one in Neidupeta. Resently HORN signed the contract with company Liviz Ltd. of Russia to supply this furnace with 175 m² to produce 540 tons of glass per day.The furnace is designed to produce above 3 tons per square meter using electric boosting installed in the melter bottom and in front of barrier wall.
Livitz Ltd. will then operate the largest furnace in Russia.
