HORN successfully completes furnace repair for Crown Sivesa in Mexico

Building on a strong partnership forged through previous successful collaborations, including the commissioning of a 450 t/d end-fired furnace for Crown Vichisa in Chihuahua (2017), a high-performance 360 t/d recuperative furnace B in Orizaba (2018), and the rebuild of Furnace A in 2020, HORN was now entrusted with the repair of Furnace C.

This latest project involved the complete refractory repair of a 375 t/d cross-fired glass melting furnace, maintaining the existing design at the Sivesa Orizaba plant. In addition, the furnace was upgraded with state-of-the-art equipment supplied by HORN, further enhancing its efficiency, reliability and production performance. Designed to produce amber, green, and flint container glass, the modernized furnace now operates with four production lines.

On April 22, the furnace successfully delivered its first glass – marking yet another milestone in this long-standing collaboration.
HORN is proud to strengthen its partnership with Sivesa, supporting them with reliable, innovative, and sustainable solutions for high-quality glass production.
