Uniglass Solutions Oy, part of the Glaston Group, has appointed Pyry Ollonqvist as General Manager, effective November 1, 2025.

The company is introducing a new approach to making glass processing technology more accessible and digitally driven.

Pyry brings nearly two decades of experience in industrial product management, service development, and international sales. He has held key roles at Metso, Outotec, and, since 2014, at Glaston, where he has led sales of high-performance glass processing technologies and developed lifecycle service concepts for industrial customers.

In his new role, Pyry will lead the development and growth of Uniglass from day one. With his strong industry background, passion for digital tools, and deep understanding of Glaston’s broader strategy, Pyry is well-positioned to drive this initiative forward.

“Uniglass is designed to make it easier for customers to access reliable glass processing solutions, quickly, digitally and without complexity. With Pyry Ollonqvist leading the way, I’m confident Uniglass will deliver a fresh, customer-first experience that complements Glaston’s broader offering,” Miika Äppelqvist, President & CEO, Glaston Corporation, comments.

Pyry Ollonqvist shares his thoughts on the new role: “Uniglass is about making things simpler, faster and more transparent for customers. We’re combining proven technology with a digital-first mindset to create something truly different in the glass industry. I’m excited to lead this journey and help build a brand that challenges conventions and delivers real value.”
