Glass

Rubber technology in the glass industry

We supply rubber rollers, seamless belts, and custom coverings, developed to meet the specific requirements of the machines used in glass processing. Our compounds, available in different hardness grades and formulations, ensure consistent performance even under the most demanding conditions of the production cycle, from coating delicate surfaces to the safe transport of sheets along the processing lines.

Thanks to well-established experience in manufacturing technical rubber products, we are able to support glass machine manufacturers and processors with tailor-made solutions, designed to optimize plant efficiency and reduce machine downtime.

What experience does A.Piovan offer its customers?

In the flat and architectural glass sector, rubber components must withstand aggressive chemical agents, variable temperatures, and particularly delicate surfaces.

What products can A.Piovan supply?

A.Piovan supplies rollers and sleeves in special compounds for glass washing, transport, tempering, and laminating machines.

Why choose A.Piovan?

The ability to formulate non-stick compounds resistant to alkaline detergents or high temperatures makes it possible to cover a wide range of applications. OEMs and glass producers find in A.Piovan a competent technical partner, able to propose the most suitable solution for every stage of the process.

Typical applications and compounds

Compounds resistant to the alkaline detergents used in cleaning cycles

Elastomers stable at high temperatures and under repeated thermal cycles

Non-stick coverings to prevent PVB adhesion

For particularly delicate glass surfaces, where the absence of marks is required

Technical insight

Glass washing, tempering, and laminating lines expose rollers to very different conditions: alkaline detergents during washing stages, high temperatures in tempering furnaces, and the need to avoid any PVB adhesion during the laminating stages of laminated glass.

  • Compounds resistant to alkaline detergents for continuous washing lines
  • Coverings stable at high temperatures for transport in tempering furnaces
  • Specific non-stick coverings to prevent PVB adhesion in laminated glass production
