A lot of interest in the Proliner® during Glasstec

The program of Glasstec, which was expanded, again this year, was well received by the visitors. The Prodim stand in hall 14 had a lot of interest, especially from international visitors from countries such as Brazil, Hungary, England, Russia and Germany. They were particularly interested in the Proliner, a unique digital measuring device, made with a state of the art wire technology to measure flat, bended and architectural glass. The measurements are digitized and can immediately be edited and can be made ready for production. The device is lightweight and very easy to use.



Exhibitors rate future prospects positively, high visitor satisfaction

“I am delighted that there were positive signs at Glasstec 2014 in the field of mechanical engineering and the glass industry. The killed glazier’s trade is currently doing extremely well. What is most important for us as organizers of Glasstec is that our customers are satisfied because this is the basis for positive and sustainable growth for the event for the benefit of all involved.” summed up Hans Werner Reinhard, Managing Director at Messe Düsseldorf.



The next glasstec will be held in Düsseldorf in line with its two-year cycle from 20 to 23 September 2016.
