Float glass plants are enormous–over 350,000 square feet under each roof.
Each plant uses $500,000 of natural gas and $85,000 of electricity every month.
Float plants run nonstop 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Each FG plant ships 35-40 trucks of glass every day, at almost 35,000 square feet per truck.
Glass is cut in sizes as small as 16″ x 20″ to as large as 130″ x 204″.
These systems as well as our industry-leading inspection processes are the assurance that Cardinal glass will exceed specification and expectation. Great glass helps make great windows, so manufacturing superior float glass is always our stated goal.
