Furnace Solutions Conference 2026 – Save the Date

Adopting the theme “Decarbonisation: What’s the Reality?”, the two-day conference will feature a packed programme of technical presentations by industry experts from across the supply chain. The event will bring together an international audience of glassmakers, end users and suppliers to address the latest challenges and opportunities that are shaping a sustainable future for glass. 

Details of early-bird registration will be announced shortly. In the meantime, companies interested in submitting an abstract for consideration, exploring sponsorship opportunities or reserving a stand in the tabletop exhibition are invited to contact Christine Brown: christine@sgt.org
