Director of the Chemicals Division describing one area of his operations:

Bereich Gemenge/Bindemittel

Unser Ziel in diesem Bereich ist es, die Glasschmelzwanne und die Bindemittelverwiegung mit Material in ausreichender Menge und gewünschter Qualität zu versorgen.
Dafür haben wir zum Beispiel im Jahre 2002 1225 Lieferungen Gemengerohstoffe (inklusive Recyclingglas) abgerufen, entladen und von jeder Lieferung Proben zur Prüfung im chemischen Labor entnommen. Aus weiteren 235 Lieferungen für die Bindemittelproduktion haben wir 971 Lösungen hergestellt und 2800 Analysen gemacht. In Summe waren das ca. 40.000 Tonnen Rohstoffe.
