1950’s

When it All Began

When Ernest and Julio Gallo founded the Gallo Glass Company in 1958, they were launching a new era in bottle making. They had a vision for state-of-the-art glass manufacturing that would meet the needs of consumers while minimizing the impact on the environment.

1970’s

Breaking Through the Turbulence

When many glassmaking factories were shutting their doors because of the energy crisis, Gallo glass was picking up steam. With the addition of two new furnaces, they we able to manufacture more bottles with five operating furnaces.

1980’s

Thinking Smarter, Not Harder

With the rising environmental concerns over glass manufacturing, Gallo made its process more efficient and less wasteful. They invested in triple gob coolers and designed smaller bottles. They also switched from mechanical to computerized timing control.

1990’s

Taking Oxy-Fuel Firing Full Steam

Many companies were researching effective methods for reducing NOx emissions, but Gallo Glass was a pioneer at making it possible on a larger scale by building their first cryogenic oxygen facility armed with electrostatic precipitator emissions control equipment.

A Clear Path for a New Era

The installation of modern equipment and processes gave a boost to the firing and manufacturing speed. With that Gallo was able to increase the overall quality, ISO and automation for bulk production while decreasing bottle weight.

Seeing a Sustainable Future

Throughout the decades, glassmaking has revolutionized for the sake of the environment and Gallo Glass is proud of what they’ve contributed. They continue their commitment to sustainability by maintaining state-of-the-art furnaces, modern manufacturing processes and control practices.

Experience and Expertise

Significant knowledge, skills, and expertise developed over many years of experience are needed for glass manufacturing. The organization you pick ought to be knowledgeable about and skilled at handling projects of your particular kind and generally have experience in this sector.

Have a Great Project Manager

Speaking with the glassmaker or your project coordinator, whether in person or by video conference, can help you decide whether they are reliable, experienced, and informed. This stage allows you to raise real-time questions to determine if you and the designated manufacturer are on the same page (ideal, but only sometimes geographically practical).

Get Multiple Quotes

Get quotations from various manufacturers, particularly if you have yet to gain prior expertise or knowledge of the business. He generally requests three quotes from three different lens makers. You can determine what is reasonable, excessively expensive, and excessively expensive for your position as long as everyone delivers the same project with the same scope, lead, and schedule.

Ask Lead Times

Finding the ideal business doesn’t only mean discovering they can’t complete the assignment by the deadline. One of the initial queries is to discover the current lead time for a project of your size and scope. In this way, neither you nor the glassmaker will waste time if the firm fails due to logistical issues.
