20–23 October 2026 WE ARE GLASS.
VISIT GLASSTEC 2026.
The World's Leading Trade Fair
for the Glass Industry
The hotspot for trends, technology and markets
What our visitors say...
It’s a very pleasant and productive environment here, and the organisation of the trade fair is excellent too. The international mix of exhibitors and visitors is particularly important to us.
CO₂ reduction and high energy costs are the hot topics at the moment. I believe our industry is resilient, and glasstec is a good example of that.
I’m really enjoying the conferences this year. Another advantage of this trade fair is the display of so many machines. It’s very interesting – and a rare opportunity – to see them in action.
Through the Federation, we represent the UK glass industry and are delighted to have the opportunity to gain a strong foothold in the international market via glasstec.
We’ve been attending glasstec since 2006, so we feel right at home here. We also go into town in the evenings to have a bit of a look around.

glass industry as innovation driver
At glasstec, innovative strength is evident in the details: two projects from among the exhibitors demonstrate how glass enables sophisticated architecture and new technologies – from heatable triple-glazed units for an urban space in Helsinki to high-precision glass waveguides for augmented reality glasses.
