Ryze, which earlier this year became a member of the not-for-profit organisation Glass Futures, to explore the role hydrogen can play in reducing the glass industry’s carbon emissions, will provide hydrogen to Guardian’s plant in Goole, UK.
It will be used as a technical gas during the float glass process.
Chris Duguid, Plant Manager from Guardian Glass, said:
We are really pleased to be starting this partnership with Ryze.
“Hydrogen is vital to our float glass production process. Hydrogen is used to create an oxygen-free environment as a blanket to avoid oxidation of the tin onto which we float molten glass.
“As this is needed 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week, 365-days-a-year, it is absolutely critical that we partner with a reliable supplier, which is what we have with Ryze.”
Jake Harding, Business Development Executive at Ryze, who worked on the deal with Guardian Glass, said:
Float glass is a key component for the construction and automotive industries which are, in turn, key pillars of the UK economy.
“Guardian Glass is an industry leader in this area, so we are delighted to be working with them to provide this crucial resource.”
