The aim of this exhibition is to promote this industry and to prepare a roadmap for the development of the country’s glass industry by examining the challenges and issues in this sector and by comparing Iran with leading countries in this field.
Acquaintance with the latest products and developments in the glass industry, exchange of information and technical knowledge among participants, acquainting visitors with the latest achievements offered in various sectors of the industry, creating direct communication between producers and consumers, creating investment opportunities, creating employment and marketing opportunities and promoting exports are also among the most important goals of this exhibition.

Iran produces more than 2.5 million tons of glass annually, of which 1.6 million tons are flat glass, 450,000 tons are bottles and the rest are crystals.
Currently, 450,000 square meters of construction glasses are produced daily in 10 large active glass factories in the country, of which about 40 percent is exported to the countries of the Persian Gulf, Central Asia, and even Europe.
