SANI-CERAMEX 2010

Due to its remarkable properties and enormous potential, modern glass, as a construction material, finds ever-increasing applications nowadays. The Russian glass market is rapidly developing. New companies enter it annually, considering it one of the most promising markets in Europe.

Today the Russian glass industry contains about 3,000 businesses, over 500 of which are large and middle enterprises. High demand for flat and container glass results from a tremendous growth in the construction market and an expansion of food production. A considerable amount of glass is used in the furniture and transportation industries. According to expert opinion, demand across the globe for glass and glass products will grow fast, and in 2010 it will be double what it was in 2004.

The manufacture of glass and glass products involves high technology, engineering ingenuity and creative research. The latest glass production technology, modern machinery, equipment and tools are the core of the Mir Stekla Exhibition, which gives a comprehensive idea of development prospects of modern glass production.
