Founded in 1994, Maxividro has always been in the forefront of innovation with regular monitoring of equipment and technology playing an important role. In addition to its home market, Maxividro has since the beginning actively approached export markets, which nowadays represent over 50% of its sales to destinations such as Spain, Switzerland, UK, USA and Canada.

Bystronic glass’ B‘JUMBO FLEX 330 I.G. manufacturing line has a maximum dimension for insulating glass units with a height of 3.30 meters and length of 9.0 meters. The total lenght of the line is 101.6 meters.
