In 2007, Duzce Cam, a subsidiary of Okan Group, a fast-growing Turkish glass processor, entrusted Fives Steins with the design and supply of its first float glass line. In 2010, the new plant started up its first float line. With this, the Okan Group has a direct and competitive access to prime quality float glass for all its glass processing and sales activities, enhancing the strength and the dimension of this fast-growing regional glass group. Two years after their successful entry into float glass production, Duzce Cam is ready to embark on a major expansion and is to build a second float line. The new flat glass line will produce around 800/tpd and will incorporate the latest melting technology, the L.E.M.® (Low Energy Melter), a new-generation furnace designed to meet the challenge of ever-increasing energy prices.
