HORN® has started the furnace heat-up process at GCA's new 400 t/d end fired furnace in Turkey.

The lighting took place on Tuesday, 2 February. The first glass was on 19 February. The entire start-up process had been and will continue to be supported by HORN® technicians. This project is a very special one since we have installed our new forehearth system GCS® 301-advanced for the first time. The performance test is expected to begin in mid March.
