Gerresheimer contracted the glass melting technology specialist HORN to replace the existing furnace and to convert it to the latest low-CO2 glass melting technology. The well proven oxyfuel technology is used together with the in-house E-Fusion Powerboosting as a hybrid technology. The new hybrid oxyfuel furnace for the plant in Lohr am Main will produce container glass much more sustainably in the future.
Under the construction supervision of HORN, the new melting furnace will initially be built with four forehearths from the HORN GCS301-advanced series in the first quarter of 2025. The furnace is designed for a maximum daily output of 390 tons per day with a total of five production lines at the end.
