Added Comfort
25th July 2017

Liverpool based Custom Glass has invested in a Comfort Line from BYSTRONIC GLASS.

The new 2.3 x 3.5 m system will help to further automate production methods and increase efficiency to provide consistently high quality products.

With previous investments having been made in modern Bystronic machinery, the new IG line needed to run at the right speed alongside other production lines, whilst also having the ability to cope with larger commercial units.

Custom Glass managing director Jeff Hooson said: “Because of the assortment of products that we manufacture our machinery must be able to adapt to handle all sizes and shapes. This new system is extremely user friendly as it constantly calibrates itself so whatever comes down the line is automatically recognised.”

The system replaces an older line used for domestic products which could not accommodate larger shapes for commercial applications.

Jeff Hooson continued: “As a company we have always been progressive with a view to be a ‘one-stop-shop’ for glass supplies. As time has passed we have become more automated and with each investment it has improved standards not just for us but for our customers. The first Bystronic line included hotmelt sealing robots which was one of the first systems of its kind in the UK. The company has proved itself as a supplier and I have not been disappointed in the investment - the system runs very well indeed.

“Production at Custom Glass will increase considerably and product diversification with larger shapes will inevitably follow. The Bystronic Glass reputation is first class and we know that we can supply our customers with consistently high quality products. We believe that our reputation will be further enhanced by our association with the Bystronic and Hegla brands.”

Hegla UK sales consultant Paul Gibbs, added: “We consider we provide superior products and services which reflect our corporate philosophy of working alongside customers to ensure they achieve their targets. We have developed a strong working relationship with Custom Glass and feel confident about the new installation.”
