The first Qibin Glass product line heated up for production

The first 900-t/d float glass line of Zhangzhou Qibin Glass Co., Ltd, a key project in Fujian province invested with 3.72 billion yuan, was heated up for production on December 28.

When operated, Zhangzhou Qibin Glass Co., Ltd. will create an annual output value at 10 billion yuan, which will make Dongshan the largest high-grade glass production base in South China.

Dongshan has more than 200 million tons of silica sand reserves, with the silicon content at over 95%. Silica sand is the optimal raw material for high-grade float glass and large-scale steel castings in machines.

Since 2007, Zhejiang Ningbo Qibin Glass Group Co., Ltd. has invested heavily in two glass lines in Dongshan and planned to complete the lines in 3-4 years. One is the 900-t/d float glass line, and the other is a 600-t/d Low-E on-line coating glass line.
