Container Glass

MB Controls, Inc. has extensive experience in the container glass industry.  We have worked with the blow and blow, press and blow, and narrow neck press and blow methods.  Generally, we do not deal with the "gob" or molding machines; but we still have expertise in the furnace, and down the line from the molding machine-starting with stacking systems and ending with a packaged and palletized product-ready for the end-customer.
