Glass container manufacturers operate large industrial facilities using high-temperature furnaces to melt raw materials — silica sand, soda ash, limestone, and cullet — and form molten glass into bottles, jars, and other packaging containers through automated molding and annealing processes. Finished containers are typically sold to food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and specialty product companies.
Questions to investigate
- What is the age and condition of the primary furnaces, and what does the maintenance and inspection schedule look like?
- What industries are the finished containers sold into — food and beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, or other?
- Are there any history of environmental compliance issues, emissions violations, or wastewater discharge incidents?
- What contractual indemnification or products liability requirements do major customers impose?
