Tses Glass is expected to become the largest dynamic glass manufacturing factory in Africa focused on producing industry leading glass products with the type of float glass, hollow glass, glass wool and fiber, cast glass, and ultrathin glass for the construction of residential and commercial buildings as well as for automobiles, kitchenware, bottles, touch screen computing, and smart phones devices for the markets around the world.Siemens AG, the Germany based global powerhouse in electronics and electrical engineering, operating in the industry, energy and healthcare sectors, is to provide and supply the needed glass making technology, equipment, and processes for the successful and efficiently development and manufacturing operation flow of the Tses Glass Manufacturing Plant.Tses Glass seeks to partner with some of the world’s largest glass manufacturing equipment makers, technology providers, and suppliers for its planned dynamic glass manufacturing plant, which aims to help rapidly transform the local and regional economy of the Tses community by making it one of the fastest growing local economies in Southern Namibia.Budgeted at more than US$5 billion (N$41 billion) for its development and construction, Tses Glass expects to create more than 8,000 of new direct manufacturing jobs in Tses and more than 40,000 of new indirect jobs throughout Namibia."Similar to our steel mill in Otavi, this glass manufacturing plant is also an ecosystem by itself; an interlink connected industrial project, as more and more suppliers, providers and developers are expected to flock to the Tses area to setup new businesses to provide services and housing development for the Tses Glass workers." States Simon Kapenda, Neuroeconomist and CEO of Groot Group.
