The manufacturing of glass casings in the company started with the integration of the manufacture of electric lamps in the mid-forties using the primitive methods in the formation of hand blowing. This method continued with the continuous expansion of production capacity until the mid-1960s
In 1968, automated systems for the formation of balloon vessels were introduced by the establishment of an oven with a production capacity of 5 tons of glass per day, operated by a rotary machine (Carousel) to form glass casings with a production capacity of 24 million balloons per year. Successive expansion of the factory in automated balloon production was carried out in line with the expansion of the production of light bulbs in 1976/1981/1991, which currently has a production capacity of 13 million balloons per year can be produced on the production line.
It covers the needs of the glass bulb manufacturer for all models. In 1970, a glass melting furnace was added to produce glass pipes to meet the needs of the fluorescent factory using the latest horizontal pipe production methods. The current capacity of this line is currently (11-12) million pipes annually according to the formation of different models and the continuous development of the production furnace The glass is continuous either in relation to the section of the glass mixture preparation or in relation to melting furnaces, production mechanisms or control methods according to the latest international developments.
Successive expansion of balloon production was carried out in line with the expansion of the production of light bulbs in the years 76/81/1991, where the production capacity reached 90 million balloons annually can be produced on three production lines, which covers part of the needs of the lamp bulbs Glass for all models and the rest are imported. In 2003, the carousel lines were stopped and the production line (GB) is currently being used to produce 80mm and 60mm glass casings for the needs of the bulbs factory
