At Glasstec 2014 (Hall 16, Booth A21) Forel will be showcasing the very latest in their range of technically innovative machines that produce high volume energy efficient, low noise insulated glass units.

Forel will demonstrate the results of their continuous research through new patented solutions that have been developed from customer feedback, industry need and evolutionary innovation.

Forty years of manufacturing experience has contributed to the Forel brand being recognized worldwide as a market leader which makes the company very proud of its "Made in Italy" credentials.

While globalization, delocalization, or industrialization takes hold in other companies, Forel, located at their headquarters in Treviso Italy has remained focused on the customization and development of their core product range. Thanks to the specialist teams of designers, software and mechanical engineers, the overall provision of service excellence to the flat glass industry is guaranteed.

At this edition of Glasstec (Düsseldorf 21st to 24th October 2014) Forel will exhibit a full range of machines that are built to satisfy the latest market trends: large panels, triple or quadruple glass units with variable thicknesses, structural stepped glazing with significant thermal reduction via the use of hybrid spacer systems.

The synchronization between software and hardware allows for the simple processing of high speed production irrespective of the final glass panel composition.

Forel pioneered the development of vertical edge grinding and their range is now renowned worldwide for stability, accuracy, versatility and quality. The simple application of this critical process has delivered countless customers improved flexibility with increased productivity reducing cost and downtime.

All the machinery platforms ensure the highest levels of automation delivering safety, consistency and enviable productivity performance. Quality is at the very heart of Forel and is fundamental to the philosophy of the machinery and the products they produce.

The continual investment in company performance, machinery improvements and new projects are key to our continued success all of which will be demonstrated during the show.
