Bucher Emhart Glass, the leading global supplier of machinery and equipment to the glass manufacturing industry, is pleased to announce changes to the management team, sales structure, pricing model, and product distribution of its refractories division.

Lajos Giczi is promoted to Global Business Manager Refractories, with responsibility for all refractory manufacturing and field sales.He will be based at the Bucher Emhart Glass office in Neuss, Germany. Lajos joined Bucher Emhart Glass in 2013 as Sales Manager Refractories EMEA, having previously been Director of Sales and Production at Refmon Refractory Monolithics Ltd.



The sales force for refractories has also been strengthened, with salespeople dedicated to the EMEA, Asia-Pacific, and Americas regions.



Commonly ordered refractory items – including orifice rings, plungers, burner blocks, cement, and more – are now held in stock at Bucher Emhart Glass’ distribution hub in Luxembourg, and the pricing structure for refractory expendables has also been revised.
