Gruppo Bizzotto, a long-standing leader in Italy’s architectural glass sector, has made a significant technological leap with the integration of a next-generation Heat Soak Test (HST) oven into its production facilities. Known for more than five decades of expertise and a customer-centric approach, the company is reaffirming its dedication to innovation, precision, and safety.
The newly installed HST-V model, provided by glass technology specialist Pujol, is engineered to meet the highest standards for tempering safety glass. As the use of heat-soaked tempered glass becomes a requirement in many European architectural projects, this move ensures that Gruppo Bizzotto remains aligned with current regulations, specifically the EN 14179 standard, while reducing the risk of spontaneous breakages caused by nickel sulphide (NiS) inclusions.
This cutting-edge system offers several standout features, including:
- A processing capacity for large glass panels up to 5400 x 2800 mm.
- Advanced digital thermal cycle control for precision treatment.
- Integrated smart software for traceability and automatic report generation.
- Uniform temperature distribution and energy-efficient insulation for optimized performance.
By investing in this high-performance solution, Gruppo Bizzotto is not only expanding its production capabilities but also strengthening its role as a trusted partner in the architectural glass industry. The new oven positions the company to meet the rising demand for safe, high-quality glass products in both domestic and international markets. 
“As we continue to grow, we’re focused on delivering excellence through technology and ensuring our clients benefit from the highest quality and safety standards,” the company stated.
