Gillinder Glass Execs Meet with Asia Manufacturers to Expand Global Sourcing Network
PORT JERVIS, N.Y. -- The Gillinder Glass management team recently traveled around Asia to meet with glass manufacturers to further expand its global sourcing network.
In addition to the specialty, hand-pressed, molded glass produced by Gillinder Glass for 151 years, global sourcing provides additional options for customers to provide the best finished product and cut back on the number of vendors a customer must contact to find the solutions to their needs.
While in Asia recently, Gillinder Glass execs specifically formed relationships with, and inspected, evaluated and validated additional manufacturers who produce flat glass lenses, protective covering lenses, plano-convex lenses, double-convex lenses with various focal lengths, prisms for use with LEDs, small containers, ribbed shades, and threaded and unthreaded explosion-proof globes and domes.
“Our management team had a very productive trip to Asia where we met with a variety of glass manufacturers. We look forward to continuing conversations in future days and weeks to come with those businesses. It is our mission at Gillinder Glass to always provide the very best products and applications for our customers, and global sourcing helps us to reach that goal,” said Charles Gillinder, CEO of Gillinder Glass.
This international trip is a continuation of one the company’s objectives, which began two years ago -- to form strategic partnerships in the U.S. and around the world. Over those two years, the company has already formed successful partnerships with custom prism manufacturers, technologically advanced finishers and specialty coating companies.
