BDK-GLASS was established in Czechoslovakia in 1991. We are a small, family company whose production is focused on the manual processing of clear and coloured flat glasses through the FUSING technology., , FUSING is based on fusing flat glasses together and subsequently shaping them in furnaces at temperatures around 800°C. Our company mainly supplies large and small bowls, trays, coasters, decorative candlesticks, gift items, and original glass trophies., , These products are used mainly in food preparation and service, flower arranging, and residential architecture and decoration. We also produce glass door panels, kitchen cabinet panels, glass tables, and more., , We enjoy creating our own modern designs with fresh styles and originality, and this creativity has become a characteristic feature of our company. However, we are very flexible and we are happy to satisfy customer proposals. Although we produce our glass by hand, we keep our prices favourable for every customer. Production is ecological and basically wasteless., , BDK-GLASS mainly exports its product to European countries and North America. Customers especially appreciate our products’ versatility and the originality that comes from manual processes., , About the technology, , FUSING technology is a glass production method based on fusing flat glasses together and subsequently shaping (“layingâ€) them at temperatures between 800 and 850°C. We do not process molten glass like ordinary glassworks: our raw material is flat glass., , FUSING technology enables us to produce shapes and colour combinations that other glass techniques do not allow., , Smaller elements are cut by hand from flat glass with a diamond cutter, while larger sizes are cut on a computerised cutting machine that enables precision to within one millimetre. Unused pieces flat glass are recycled into other production processes, meaning that BDK-GLASS produces virtually no waste., , Before the product itself is fused and shaped, it is possible to decorate the glass through various techniques such as painting, sprinkling with shards and frit (glass powder), fusing decals, etc. Following the heat treatment of the products, we can add other design elements through sandblasting, grinding, and other techniques., , Radka BureÅ¡ová, , Studdied at The High School of Applied Arts for Glassmaking in Železný Brod and Faculty of Art and Design University in Ústà nad Labem (Czech Republic
