About the members<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Bundesverband Flachglas e.V. today has around 90 members with more than 180 facilities inside and outside Germany.<\/p>\n
It also has more than 70 supporting members, most of whom are suppliers or service providers for the regular members.<\/p>\n
Manufacture of the basic product, float glass or cast glass, is on an industrial scale. All companies represented in Germany who produce glass in their glassworks \u2013 highly modernized production facilities \u2013 are BF members, so that BF acts as the mouthpiece for the entire industry.<\/p>\n
The next step \u2013 covering glass with, for example, thermal insulation or solar control coatings \u2013 is in some cases done by the glass manufacturers themselves, but some small and medium-sized companies too have the appropriate technologies. All glass coating companies located in Germany are also BF members. Production of the insulating glass itself is the domain of a large number of small and medium-sized insulating glass manufacturers and finishers. The degree of organization within BF at this level is 80 %.<\/p>\n
The clients of BF\u2019s members are companies in the glass-processing trade, such as glazers and window manufacturers. They receive not only the commodity of \u201cflat glass\u201d in its various designs, but also many services: from glass processing \u2013 cutting to size, grinding and finishing \u2013 to the supply of brochures and other sales-promoting material, project consulting, planning and training.<\/p>\n

Industrial level:<\/strong> Basic glass manufacturers, flat glass industry
\nProcessing level:<\/strong> Insulating glass manufacturers, glass finishers, glass wholesalers
\nClients of BF members:<\/strong> Glass-processing trade, window manufacture<\/p>\nYou can find the location overview of our members here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>![](\"https:\/\/www.bundesverband-flachglas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/bf-mitglieder.jpeg\" "\\"bf-mitglieder\\"")
