HORN, a leading provider of innovative glass melting furnace technology, has announced a significant collaboration with Ambev, one of the world’s largest beverage companies.
This partnership involves the supply and installation of a cutting-edge, energy-efficient glass melting furnace equipped with three forehearths for Ambev’s new container glass plant in Carambeí, Brazil.
This project represents a considerable milestone, marking the *third* furnace HORN has provided to Ambev, a testament to the enduring trust and successful partnership between the two companies. The continued collaboration highlights HORN’s commitment to delivering high-quality, sustainable solutions to the beverage industry and Ambev’s dedication to investing in advanced manufacturing capabilities.
The new furnace will play a crucial role in producing glass containers for Ambev’s portfolio of iconic brands, including Stella Artois, Beck’s, and Spaten, supporting breweries across Brazil. The facility’s emphasis on energy efficiency underscores Ambev’s commitment to environmental sustainability and aligns perfectly with HORN’s focus on developing environmentally responsible technologies.
Construction at the Carambeí site is progressing rapidly. Beginning in late January, HORN’s experienced team of engineers and technicians will be on-site to oversee and support the installation process, ensuring a seamless and efficient integration of the new furnace. Their expertise will be crucial in guaranteeing optimal performance and minimizing downtime.
HORN is confident in delivering a successful project, further strengthening its partnership with Ambev. This collaboration showcases the mutual dedication to innovation and sustainability within the container glass industry, setting a benchmark for future advancements in environmentally conscious glass production. The project’s successful completion will not only enhance Ambev’s production capacity but also contribute to a more sustainable future for the beverage industry in Brazil and beyond.
