Working within strict travelling restrictions, we engineered and delivered the complete hot end for the glass plant, which is situated in Toluca, close to Mexico City. Nikolaus SORG built a new 117m² regenerative End-Fired furnace with a capacity of 320 t/d to produce container glass (soda lime) in a variety of colours including amber, flint and green.

Partnering with EME, a batch plant was constructed with the capacity to support the later installation of a second furnace. This included raw material charging, storage, dosing, weighing, mixing, a batch transport system and batch charger. A cullet return system was also built, featuring a scraper, crusher and belt scale.

With market-leading melting and conditioning technologies, SORG Group's three specialist companies combine to offer a unique, all-in-one solution for glass manufacturers just like Vidrio Formas, right across the world.
