Furnace for the Future - A Huge Milestone Towards Climate-Neutral Glass Packaging | Glass Open Book

Описание: The ‘Furnace for the Future’ (F4F) is an initiative that will allow bigger glass furnaces and plants to switch to renewable electricity and dramatically reduce their CO2 emissions using high amounts of recycled glass and all glass colours.

The European and global container glass manufacturer Ardagh Group has volunteered to lead a coalition of 19 independent companies representing over 90% of the total glass container production in Europe. Ardagh Group will build a pilot hybrid furnace in Obernkirchen, Germany by 2022, with first results in 2023. The other glass companies will co-finance the project, and in return, will receive all the necessary information, like plant visits, training of operators, operating parameters to run similar plants.

We at Glass Open Book fully support such initiatives that take place in the glass container industry and we also call on policy-makers and stakeholders to support our industry to make this hugely important energy transition.
