ABOUT GILLINDER GLASS

Established in 1861, Gillinder Glass (Gillinder Brothers, Inc.) is a custom technical molded and filter glass manufacturer located in Port Jervis, NY. Gillinder specializes in pressed and custom molded, clear and colored glass products “Made in the USA” from both open (Gillinder-owned) and private (customer-owned) molds.

Gillinder is a world leader in the manufacture of optical filter glass. Current products include PAR lenses, convex covers, Fresnel lenses, vapor tight and explosion-resistant globes, domes, cylinders, industrial globes, sight lenses, NVIS-compatible filters and contoured covers. Custom shapes can also be engineered and produced.

In addition to producing as much as 50% of the glass components for airfield runway lights for the US market, Gillinder provides products for lighting and other applications for many industry segments (both domestic and international) including aerospace and defense, architectural, commercial, industrial, landscape, theatrical, and transportation.

Our chemists and engineers work with customers to assist in the design and development of custom glass products. Using multiple day tanks and pots, as opposed to continuous flow manufacturing techniques, Gillinder is able to produce multiple product shapes of different colors each day to meet each customer’s specific requirements. But, perhaps even more importantly, it allows us to serve a customer’s needs throughout their products' life cycle from limited introductory quantities, to full maturity production runs, and then heritage volumes.

Gillinder is proud of its rich heritage as a US glass manufacturer and its long standing (in some cases decades old) relationships with its customers. We look forward to continuing and building upon our reputation as a world leading manufacturer of technical molded glass products. If you are already a customer, thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you again. If you are not yet a customer, please contact us today so we may begin to provide the solution to your glass needs.
