The acquisitions create a close co-operation between Z. Bavelloni Group, Glasto Group, and Tamglass Group, as all the companies are now fully owned subsidiaries of Kyro Corporation. The sales and service networks of the companies form the most extensive service network in the glass processing machinery industry.
