Flat glass market overview in the Russian Federation in November 2019

Since the beginning of 2019, 222.9 million m2 of flat glass has been produced, which is 0.2% more than in the same period last year. LLC “AGC Flat Glass Klin”, JSC “Salavatsteklo” and LLC “Guardian Glass Rostov” are leaders in the production of flat glass, producing 45% of all glass in the Russian Federation.

For 11 months of 2019, a significant increase in production was observed at LLC Guardian Steklo Rostov +2.9 million m2 (+ 12.6%) up to 26.5 million m2, LLC "AGC BSZ" +1.7 million m2 (+ 12.4%) up to 15.4 million m2. OJSC "Saratovstroisteklo" +0.9 million m2 (+ 4.6%) up to 20.4 million m2.

Methodological notes:

Safety sheet glass is divided into Tempered glass (“Stalinite”) and Laminated glass (“Triplex”). In retail sales, the prices for toughened glass and triplex are approximately the same; moreover, the FSGS provides only prices for “safe flat glass”, which were calculated based on sales of building materials and sales.

All glass produced by the float method is assumed to be flat glass (it involves production by interaction of primary raw materials (charge) with molten tin). Flat glass producer prices were calculated based on sales of building materials and sales.
