The Glass Container Industry In Saudi Arabia

The glass container industry is very young in Saudi Arabia, the first plant being commissioned in 1972 in Dammam. This consisted of a natural gas-fired unit melter of 40 metric tons/day capacity feeding one 6-section IS machine. This plant was taken over by Zoujaj in 1992, upgraded to a 60 metric ton capacity furnace feeding one 8-section IS machine (electronic).
