"At the heart of the world's glass industry is the float-glass process, invented by Sir Alastair Pilkington in 1952, that manufactures clear, tinted, and coated glass for buildings and clear and tinted glass for vehicles. The process, originally able to make only 6 mm thick glass, now makes it as thin as 0.4 mm and as thick as 25 mm. Around 260 float plants are in operation, under construction, or planned worldwide. Molten glass, at approximately 1000 °C, is poured continuously from a furnace onto a shallow bath of molten tin. It floats on the tin, spreads out, and forms a level surface. Thickness is controlled by the speed at which the solidifying glass ribbon is drawn off from the bath. After annealing (controlled cooling) the glass emerges as a fire-polished product with virtually parallel surfaces. A float plant, which operates nonstop for between 10-15 years, makes around 6000 kilometres of glass a year in thicknesses of 0.4 mm to 25 mm and in widths up to 3 meters. The float process has been licensed to more than 40 manufacturers in 30 countries. There are around 260 float plants worldwide with a combined output of about 800,000 tones of glass a week - over 90% of glass is manufactured from this process."
