Mission and Values

Our Mission

Our mission is to make the world safer and more productive through excellence in glass science, collaborative innovation, and the production of technical glass for unique and demanding applications.

Our Values

For over 90 years we have been creating unique and innovative glass solutions for technical, industrial, and commercial applications. Our glass is used in demanding applications that range from high voltage bushings to the contoured lenses found on aircraft wings to optics for UV curing. These applications require the highest quality and conformance to strict specifications.

To achieve our mission and to meet our customer’s expectations we follow a set of values that guide all of our actions. We aspire to live these values every day; they are the foundation of our culture and define who we are and the way we operate in the world.
