TECSIGLASS was entrusted with the engineering, demolition and reconstruction of the structure, as well as updating the software, in collaboration with Fila Termoidraulica, responsible for the management of the compressed air, methane gas and water systems. C.D.M. provided the heavy carpentry, while Alca upgraded the electrical system.
The dome, superstructure and rooms of the pre-existing structure have been preserved. Instead, the glass conditioning section, the distribution channels and other parts of the oven in direct contact with the glass have been completely redesigned.
Thanks to the reconstruction, the kiln's production capacity was increased to 190 tonnes per day (tpd), compared to the previous 175 tpd, thus improving the plant's competitiveness on the market.
