Heat-Insulation Materials For Glass Industry
UKREST is a dynamic company, specializing in the manufacture of custom-made and standard protection, sealing and insulation products. It is the world leader in the production of non-asbestos millboards.
During the production process, glass is stressed and its skin is subjected to considerable thermal shock. There is a risk of disturbance during contact with pusher hands, transfer wheels and stacker bars.
Why not try an optimization already adopted by the large majority of glass manufacturers?
UKREST's state of the art glass contact product range ismade for the most part of 316 stainless steel extra thin yarns , braided or woven together to obtain the ideal soft contact required by the glass skin.
No more micro-checks!
Available by the metre and easy to adapt to article shapers with a quick welding solution.
