Forglass supports Stoelzle Flaconnage rebuild with fast-track delivery of batch transport and cullet handling system

As Stoelzle Glass Group prepares to restart its Flaconnage plant in Knottingley this December, Forglass is close to completing the delivery of the facility’s cullet handling, batch transport and entire batch plant automation system – a crucial component of the accelerated rebuild following the July 2025 fire.

Forglass team has been engaged in the immediate reconstruction of critical infrastructure. Thanks to the in-house manufacturing, standardized solutions, and experienced engineering team, Forglass is able – within just 3 months – to design, manufacture, install, and commission the entire cullet handling and batch transport systems.

“This project shows how the right combination of expertise, technology, and organization allows us to act fast and effectively – even in emergency situations,”  Piotr Knast , Forglass CEO, commented.

The new systems are engineered for reliability, precision and high efficiency ensuring a stable, high-performance restart at the Knottingley facility.
