NEW FURNACE GETS SEAL OF APPROVAL - October 19 2011
The DualSeal Glass board of Directors has approved the purchase of a new furnace which is part of a larger long term strategy to future proof the business by moving DualSeal into the so called'blue ocean' territory where there are fewer companies than can even compete.
The new Glaston FC500™ with its excellent energy efficiency,capability and higher performance levels will offer a giant leap forward in both final glass quality and product offerings.
The new furnace with its bed size of 2800 x 5000 and a revolutionary heating system will compliment the previous investments in cutting, software and automatic unit manufacture and safeguard Dual Seal's position as one of the top UK idependant manufacturers of commercial insulating glass units maintaining there committment to Quality and Service.
The new FC500™ will be delivered at the end of February 2012 and production is scheduled to begin about 6 weeks later. The current Tamglass HTF will be still running until the new furnace is fully commissioned so its business as usual until the switch on, then its the beginning of a new era for Dual Seal Glass Ltd and its customers.
Glaston are proud to be partnering Dual Seal glass in this venture and they will be publicising the purchase more fully.

NEW BAY OPEN FOR BUSINESS - February 2 2011
The new 15000 sq ft bay was completed on time in October 2010 which allowed for the commencement of the £1.2million cutting investment during November 2010
The fully automated 'State of the Art' 6m x 3m cutting system manufactured by Hegla includes two cutting tables, concertina racking, remaster storeage and gantry loading and is the first of its kind in the UK. The system was handed over at the turn of the year and is now fully operational.
The investment represents the latest stage of a five year development plan geared to move Dual Seal Glass into the top echelon of UK Independant Insulatiing Glass manufacturers for the commercial sector. The cutting equipment was the second stage of the process which started with the introduction of Albet and Wirsam processing software during the summer of 2010.
Dual Seal Glass Managing Director Geoff Hancock believes the investment maximises the potential for growth in a diverse market and the introduction of 6m x 3m stock glasses allows Dual Seal Glass the opportunity to supply the latest High Performance products as they become available.
Please contact our sales for further information on the new 'Dualtherm' HP range of products.
