On April 2, 2024, a monumental event in the glass industry transpired as SEFPRO finalized the acquisition of GLASS SERVICE a.s., along with its subsidiaries F.I.C. UK and FlammaTec.

This strategic move marks a significant milestone in the journey of both companies and sets the stage for a new era of innovation and collaboration.

To ensure a smooth integration and maximize the synergies between the two entities, SEFPRO has appointed Marc Russo as the General Manager of GLASS SERVICE a.s. An accomplished leader with an impressive track record, Marc brings over two decades of experience within SEFPRO, where he held pivotal roles such as Global Supply Chain Director and Plant Director. His prior tenure as General Director of a company of similar stature to the Glass Service group positions him as a valuable asset in steering the combined entity towards success.

Working in tandem with Marc, the existing GLASS SERVICE management team, comprising Josef Chmelar as Technical and Innovation Director, Petr Chmelar as General Secretary, Erik Muijsenberg as Commercial Director, and Glenn Neff as Sales Director of GS USA, will play integral roles in shaping the future direction of the organization. This collaboration of seasoned professionals promises a harmonious blend of expertise and vision.

The amalgamation of SEFPRO and GLASS SERVICE heralds a unique value proposition within the market, offering end-to-end solutions across the entire lifecycle of a glass furnace. Clients can now benefit from enhanced energy management capabilities and improved refractory performance, underpinned by cutting-edge supervisory smart model-based software infused with artificial intelligence. This technological advancement not only aids in emissions control but also propels sustainable practices within the industry.

Furthermore, the union of these industry stalwarts positions them as transformative partners for clients seeking to boost operational efficiency, productivity, and spearhead initiatives towards decarbonizing the glassmaking process. Both SEFPRO and GLASS SERVICE have demonstrated unwavering commitment towards sustainability, manifesting in innovative solutions that predict the nexus between design, operational processes, furnace longevity, and energy efficiency.

In conclusion, the acquisition of GLASS SERVICE a.s. by SEFPRO represents a monumental leap towards industry leadership, marked by a commitment to innovation, sustainability, and unparalleled customer value. As these two entities embark on a new journey together, the future holds a promise of pioneering advancements, collaborative excellence, and a shared vision of redefining standards in the glass manufacturing landscape.
