Technologies/Patents/New Products
Most recently, Verescence’s patented technology includes Mineral glass, Unbreakable glass, Lightweight glass
and SCULPT’in glass. Inspired from glassmaking traditions and authentic craftsmanship, Mineral glass is made
of colored scrolls that create unique creations inside the glass. This technology consists of partial and random
coloration of the glass during its formation process. The new technology of unbreakable glass wraps the glass like
a second skin, in order to double its resistance to breakage, while maintaining its intrinsic properties. A layer of
polymer is sprayed over the bottle to increase its resistance to breakage, followed by a color or colorless varnish
as a final step which offers a variety of possible finishing effects. Verescence’s light weight glass is designed for
a sustainable luxury with a direct positive impact on the environment, and uses an unprecedented forming
technique that allows to reduce up to 40% of the glass weight of a jar by using less water consumption, less
photochemical oxidation and depletion of mineral resources, all the while at a similar capacity and to obtain very
thin glass sides and regular distribution Verescence’s SCULPT’in glass allows us to create unique shapes inside a
bottle using a special forming process that revolutionizes the forming process by pushing the boundaries of the
blowing process and gravity.
