- History & Stories | Gillinder Glass
Gillinder Glass has been a staple in pressed and molded glass manufacturing in the United States since 1861. Read an overview about Gillinder Glass and stories from collectors. Gillinder Glass Illuminates the Iconic New Year’s Eve Ball At Gillinder Glass, we’ve always been driven by a passion for innovation and craftsmanship. This year, we’re thrilled to share that our expertise has taken center stage in one of the world’s most celebrated traditions—the New Year’s Eve Ball in Times Square. Crafting a Timeless Icon Since 1861, Gillinder Glass has been a pioneer in American manufacturing, creating custom-designed glass solutions for industries ranging from aerospace and defense to architecture and design. Our reputation for precision, quality, and technical excellence recently earned us the honor of being selected to produce the 2,688 triangular glass tiles that adorn the iconic New Year’s Eve Ball. The opportunity arose in September 2024 when real estate firm Jamestown, the owner of One Times Square, began searching for a trusted partner to bring their vision for the 2026 New Year’s Eve Ball to life. After touring our Port Jervis, NY facility and witnessing firsthand our capabilities in pressed and molded glass manufacturing, the choice was clear. Gillinder was selected to make the glass for the 2025 ball. Setting New Standards Manufacturing began in November 2024, and our skilled workforce rose to the challenge, meeting ambitious production timelines while maintaining the highest quality standards. The result was not just a stunning product but a testament to the precision and dedication that define Gillinder Glass. The New Year’s Eve Ball, weighing six tons and illuminated by 32,256 LEDs, is more than just a symbol of celebration. It represents the culmination of art, technology, and craftsmanship—a perfect match for Gillinder’s mission to push the boundaries of glass innovation. The NYE Ball was recently retired in a joyous occasion! The Ball will be dismantled and put on display inside the Times Travel immersive history experience to be viewed year-round when it opens later this year. Our team got to work immediately, collaborating closely during the design phase to perfect three unique tile variations. The result? Thousands of meticulously crafted glass pieces, each reflecting Gillinder’s unparalleled technical expertise and commitment to excellence. A Legacy of Innovation This collaboration adds another proud chapter to our long history of prestigious projects. Over the years, Gillinder Glass has contributed to groundbreaking designs for institutions such as the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, the Library of Congress, and the Museum of American Glass. Whether we’re crafting components for aerospace technology or architectural masterpieces, our work is defined by its precision, beauty, and functionality. Partnering for the Future The transformation of One Times Square into a year-round destination for art, technology, and entertainment aligns with Gillinder’s own commitment to innovation and design excellence. This partnership underscores our ability to deliver exceptional solutions for world-class projects—and we’re ready for more. Are you looking for a partner with the expertise, experience, and creativity to bring your next project to life? At Gillinder Glass, we’re redefining what’s possible in glass manufacturing. Let’s work together to make your vision a reality.

Our chemists and engineers work with customers to assist in the design and development of custom glass products.

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.

- Refractor Catalog | Gillinder Glass
Gillinder Glass offer several stock refractor options. OPEN STOCK REFRACTORS Type II: distribution is well suited for expanded walkways, entrance roadway lighting, and other applications. Having a lateral width of 18-29° means this type is meant for lighting larger areas. Type III: well suited for roadway, parking, and other spaces where a larger area of light is required, as the light distribution gives more coverage further from the point source outward. Type III distribution provides a wide, round pattern and yields on even light disbursement since the light projects outwards. Type V: distribution is intended for mounting, at or near, the center of roadways, the center islands of parkways, or on intersection. Type V pushes light in all directions from the center, providing the most even pattern, equally across all angels, in either a circular or square pattern.
