Glassman Latin America 2026 to Create Business Opportunities for Mexico’s Expanding Glass Industry

The global hollow glass market turns its focus to Mexico as the country strengthens its position as the key glass manufacturing hub across the region. Supported by Glass International magazine, Glassman Latin America 2026 returns to unite the international glass manufacturing community in Mexico City on 20-21 May.

Glassman Latin America is the premier platform for professionals across the hollow glass and container industry. Whether you work in glass manufacturing and processing, supply raw materials or equipment, specialise in packaging and design, oversee maintenance, or drive technological and sustainability innovations, this event is for you.

Mexico’s advantageous geographic location provides seamless connections for the North and South American markets. Over the years, growing demand for glass has led many companies to expand operations into the country, making Mexico an ideal location for international brands and a key destination for the global glass manufacturing community.

Last year, we saw glass manufacturers flying in from over 22 countries including Brazil, USA, Canada, Italy, France, Germany, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Argentina, Trinidad and Tobago, Pakistan, India and many more, highlighting the event’s global reach.

Glassman Latin America has welcomed everyone across the entire supply chain, from presidents, directors and business owners to technicians, engineers, and researchers, training personnel and many more.
