Chameleon Business Media Ltd, publishers of Glass Worldwide and
joint organisers of GlassPrint 2007, are pleased to announce the
launch of the Annual Directory of Suppliers, to be published in
association with Ogis GmbH, providers of www.glassglobal.com
The first edition of this yearly directory was published in the
second quarter of 2007 and the new 2008 issue provides the most
comprehensively updated printed reference source for the international
glass industry. A unique buyer's guide to glassmaking equipment,
materials and services.
"glassglobal.com, with its team of expert glass engineers, in
the past has received multiple requests to issue an offline version
of the glassglobal.com company directory" said André Ommer, CEO
of OGIS GmbH. "Not being an expert in printed media, we found a
competent partner in Glass Worldwide. This magazine, like www.glassglobal.com,
is covering the whole portfolio of the international glass industry
and meets all requirements".
With this co-operation extending to glassglobal.com now officially
recognising Glass Worldwide as its preferred journal, Mr Ommer concluded
"Another reason for selecting Chameleon Business Media are the people
behind Glass Worldwide, with their enormous know-how and competence
gathered in this industry throughout the past decades."
glassglobal.com will now also act as Glass Worldwide's preferred
website portal. The publishing and events team of Chameleon Business
Media, with almost 40 years combined glass industry experience,
commented "During 2006, key readers and advertisers have told us
that they now view Glass Worldwide as the glass industry's leading
international magazine, as well as glassglobal.com as the world's
outstanding glass e-commerce website."
"Therefore", they added, "the opportunity of combining our expertise
and wealth of industry knowledge to publish the Annual Directory
of Suppliers opens exciting new possibilities for glass manufacturers
and their suppliers. Also, the sharing of glassglobal.com's unrivalled
data will ensure that the circulation lists for every issue of Glass
Worldwide are as up to date, extensive and widespread as possible".

The Annual Directory of Suppliers originates from multiple requests
from glass manufacturers all over the world to have updated and
selected address and company information in printed form. Unlike
any existing printed reference sources in the industry, the main
advantage to readers is access to the vast spectrum of suppliers
originating also from www.glassglobal.com database. These entries
are updated regularly and automatically by glassglobal.com and readers
of the Directory of Suppliers will also benefit from parallel access
to the online database.
Suppliers to the industry that would like to be represented within
this directory are urgently requested to visit glassglobal.com to
arrange for their update of company information within the directory
or to create a new company entry free of charge. Those who have
an interest in complimenting their free editorial entries with their
latest advertising message should contact sales@glassworldwide.co.uk
With over 1.5 million page impressions a month, glassglobal.com
is the biggest glass portal worldwide, and has exceptional reach
and experience in the international glass industry.
Comprehensive information within an international company directory,
machine and product trade, job market, technology and engineering
section are updated daily and are available 24/7 to all parties
involved in glass manufacture, treatment and processing.
With its recent "Online Glass Engineering" program, developed
together with Linde Gas, glassglobal.com addresses all glass manufacturers
and provides them with a very efficient channel to calculate their
furnace energy balance, specific melting capacities, specific energy
consumption as well as energy costs, to execute complete batch calculations
with comprehensive determination of glass composition characteristics,
just to name a few.
Owing to a new cooperation with glass.com.cn, glassglobal.com
now represents the world's largest network for the international
glass industry. Over 300,000 visitors are expected on the portals
within the next month. This boosted presence represents an enormous
synergy effect for the companies promoted on the portals and provides
the decisive advantage in competition.
