Contact Gillinder Glass, Specialty Glass Manufacturer
From its beginnings in 1861, when the firm produced "Plain, Moulded & Cut Flint Glass Ware in all its Varieties," to today's lighting covers, Gillinders have produced glassware worth noting. When Gillinder Glass began manufacturing glass chimneys and chemical glassware, we could not have known what the advent of electric lighting would do for our business. Today, our products are incorporated into the best lighting products in the world. Throughout it all, one thing has remained constant. As in 1861, we continue to strive today to be at the forefront of technology in the development of specialty glass manufacturing and custom glass molding.
This winning policy is evident today as Gillinder Glass continues manufacturing to the highest industry standards across several markets covering industrial, commercial, airport, aircraft, marine, landscape, fountain, pool, and spa lighting as well as many more niche lighting markets. Each product is backed with over 140 years of quality and know-how.
In the American Centennial year of 1876, the Company built an exhibition glass factory on Philadelphia's Centennial fairgrounds. Visitors could see huge glass melting pots as well as the actual production of glass Centennial souvenirs. The factory was a tremendous success and one of the exhibition's most popular attractions.
Examples of Gillinder Glass can be found in numerous collections, private and public, including those at the Museum of American Glass, the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The firm also recreated historic lighting glassware for the Library of Congress.
Gillinder is now in its second century of providing high quality glass products with friendly service, growing from a single-focus local business to a world leader of pressed glass in multiple markets.
Our factory building is the original Gillinder Brothers building. Inside the historic facade is a modern company whose roots are deep but whose sights are set on a bright future. While 21st century technology, from state-of-the-art mixing and tempering facilities to computer aided presses to our on-site mould making facility, define our facility's infrastructure, it's our experienced staff that is the root of the high quality glass products and engineering solutions we offer today. We welcome the opportunity to serve you both today and in the years to come.

Sincerely,
Charles Gillinder
President
