The Australian glass industry is ploughing on into the 21st century with the production of Low E glass, now manufactured after a major technology upgrade at the Viridian glass-making plant in Victoria.
Following the successful commencement of glassmaking in October 2008, the final stage of the technology upgrade is the implementation of a Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) coater.
This ensures that energy efficient Low E glass is being successfully produced for the first time in Australia using the CVD coating process, at Viridian’s glass production plant in Dandenong, Victoria.
CVD is a chemical process used to produce high-purity, high-performance solid materials, often used in the semiconductor industry to produce thin films.
