HORN^®’s current status of knowledge is based on more than 140 years of experience, which enables the company to supply the highest quality products for the production of beverage bottles, food containers, drinking glasses, window panes, automotive glass, glass tubes, glass fibres or special glass. 

With its abroad subsidiary companies in China, Malaysia, India, Croatia, Ukraine, the Czech Republic and Brazil, HORN^® ensures short response time and proximity for its customers worldwide. Still, 90% of the products are exported from the HORN^® headquarters in Plössberg (located in the Bavarian Upper Palatinate, Germany) to more than 75 countries worldwide.

At all times, HORN^® offers its customers full support and a helping hand. Due to a very high level of vertical integration of all products, HORN^® offers tailor-made solutions and, at the same time, has ventured into new areas, e.g. in the construction of proprietary tin baths and related equipment.

HORN^® manufactures a wide range of products in its own workshops in Plössberg such as:

• Gas, oxyfuel and heavy oil heating for melting furnaces
• Electric boosting systems
• Batch chargers
• Burners
• Stirrers
• Tin baths and tin bath equipment
• Tweels
• Dross boxes
• Waste gas reversing units
• Control cabinets and SCADA systems
