Glass production runs without interruption. This means that once put into operation, a glass furnace runs for five to seven years. After that, the furnace must be completely dismantled and replaced.
By adding certain additives, different types of glass with different properties can be achieved.
Stemmed glasses can either be made as one piece or from two pieces. In a one-piece stemmed glass, the stem is pulled out of the goblet and the base plate is formed. With this type of glass, there is no noticeable transition from the goblet to the stem. In the two-piece version, the goblet is fused with the stem at the same temperature. Here you can feel a slight transition between the stem and the goblet. However, the advantage of this is that the same stem can be used for different goblets.
There are two different production processes for the mouth rim:
Colored glass is a trend and is becoming increasingly popular. To make the glass colored, it can either be painted or dyed through.
Here the finished glass is subsequently lacquered. It is therefore not dishwasher safe, but only suitable for dishwasher. We test our lacquered glasses for you: up to 3000 professional wash cycles are possible without damaging the lacquering.

Glasses stay beautiful for the longest if they are cleaned by hand rather than in the dishwasher. Nevertheless, glasses are usually cleaned in the dishwasher in everyday life. It is important to use the right amount of detergent. The amount required may vary depending on the water hardness. In addition, there should always be enough detergent and care product in the dishwasher.
