Installed in June 2025, the new Glaston furnace, equipped with Autopilot technology, has allowed even first-time operators to manage production effortlessly. “With Autopilot, it’s as easy as using a smartphone,” says Marius Vaganyik, Production Manager at OviBest. “You just touch the screen, select the glass type, and the magic happens.”

Previously reliant on outsourcing for tempering, OviBest faced transport damage, higher costs, and project delays. Now, in-house tempering ensures uniform quality, faster turnaround, and lower risks. The furnace’s advanced convection system guarantees consistent heating, while its noise reduction cabinet provides a quieter working environment.

With around 80 employees and exports to Hungary, Italy, France, Austria, and Germany, OviBest continues to expand its reach. The new Glaston line strengthens the company’s efficiency, independence, and competitiveness, positioning it for further growth in energy-efficient glass manufacturing.

At LandGlass, we prioritize adherence to strict standards, particularly when it comes to the heating time of our glass tempering machines.

When a glass tempering machine is in operation, it is imperative that the tempering furnace reaches its rated working temperature within a specific timeframe. Our standard dictates that this temperature must be achieved within no more than 5 hours from the commencement of the heating process. By adhering to this guideline, we aim to facilitate the efficient and stable operation of the glass tempering machine, while also minimizing unnecessary waiting periods.

It is essential to recognize that certain circumstances may necessitate variations in the heating time. For instance, during the initial firing operation of the glass tempering furnace, or following a week-long shutdown of the tempering machine, a longer duration is required to stabilize the temperature effectively. In these specific scenarios, the time taken for the tempering machine to reach its rated working temperature from the point of initiation should not be less than 12 hours.

By establishing these standards, LandGlass underscores its commitment to optimizing the performance and longevity of glass tempering furnaces. We recognize the importance of precision and consistency in the manufacturing process, and our heating time guidelines reflect our dedication to upholding these principles.

The heating time standards set forth by LandGlass are designed to promote operational efficiency, stability, and quality in the glass tempering process. By adhering to these guidelines, manufacturers can ensure the optimal performance of their glass tempering furnaces, ultimately contributing to the production of high-quality tempered glass products.

In a monumental milestone, sedak proudly introduces sedak tempered+ – a revolution in tempered glass technology. This remarkable innovation brings you fully-tempered and heat-strengthened glass with an unprecedented feature: no anisotropies, completely invisible to the naked eye.

A Vision of Excellence

Engineered to deliver the pinnacle of tempered glass quality, sedak tempered+ redefines industry standards. Experience thermally toughened glass like never before, with flawless clarity, pattern-free vision from every angle, and under any lighting condition. sedak’s advanced tempering technology makes the extraordinary possible.

Architectural Marvel

For architects, designers, and visionaries, sedak tempered+ is a dream come true. It represents a new generation of toughened glass where visual and mechanical properties remain consistent, regardless of the viewing angle. It’s a promise of harmony between architecture and glass, where aesthetics and functionality coexist seamlessly. sedak tempered+ isn’t just a product; it’s a leap forward in glass technology, celebrating the transparency of one of architecture’s most cherished materials.

The Sedak Advantage

sedak’s advanced tempering process redefines the glass industry landscape. Utilizing cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, sedak tempered+ achieves a homogeneous structure, imparting not only high resistance to impacts and extreme temperatures but also unparalleled clarity and vision.

Traditional tempered glass undergoes a heating process, reaching temperatures around 620 degrees Celsius (1,184 degrees Fahrenheit), followed by rapid cooling with air jets. sedak’s patented tempering technology, however, goes further by meticulously balancing the heating and cooling phases. The result? sedak tempered+ eliminates the stress differences in the glass, eradicating anisotropies completely.

Unlocking True Glass Transparency

Conventionally, tempered glass can exhibit anisotropies where incoming light refracts differently, leading to visual disturbances such as rainbow-like spots or grey stripes in daylight. sedak tempered+ transcends these limitations, offering optically isotropic glass that transmits light uniformly, ensuring a clear and undistorted view through every pane.

Step into a world where glass innovation knows no boundaries – step into the future with sedak tempered+.
