About

Glass is an inert material that can easily be formed by heat. It is ideal forGlass is an inert material that can be shaped by heat. It is ideal for many experimental setups in chemistry, physics, biology and other disciplines. We are experts in realizing your requirements for glass apparatus. After we have designed your individual apparatus together with you, we process the glass on the lathe or by hand on the burner. We use diamond tools to cut, grind, polish, drill and mill glass, quartz glass and ceramics. We can enclose valuable samples in small glass containers. We can repair broken glassware or equipment in many cases. You don't have to buy expensive replacements. We manufacture various spare parts for equipment. We sell a standard range of glass parts via P4U or the Shop at Irchel. If you would like to learn more about the countless applications of glass, please contact us or attend one of our hands-on glassblowing courses where you will make some glass objects yourself.
