COMMUNITY GLASS INC (CGi)

What Can We Do For You?
Community Glass Incorporated is one of those unique companies that keeps the needs of its customers above its own. CGi not only manufactures preforms and tubing according to the customers' needs, but we test our own products as well as products of other companies in our laboratory. Not interested in the hermetic seal industry but still need chemical and/or physical analyses? We can help. CGi is able to analyze glass, metals and metal alloys. Do your raw materials or products contain unwanted contaminants withour your knowledge? CGi can find out.

Community Glass Incorporated (CGi) was established decades ago with the idea of servicing the hermetic seal industry with a product that works. After awhile we realized we needed a way to actually measure or compare something to ultimately achieve this goal.

To reach this objective, we have finally created a laboratory for the analyses of our raw materials and in-house manufactured products. This venture was also ensued due to the lack of available outside laboratories capable of analyzing siliceous materials with the necessary accuracy and precision we critically required.

Manufacturing:

   Products: Preforms, Tubing/Cane

   Industries and Applications : Automotive, Petrochemical, Microelectronics, Optical Networking Components, Military and Commercial Aerospace, Industrial and Process Control, Lighting Industry, Lithium Batteries

Laboratory Services:

   Chemistry: ICP Analysis of over 60 elements/oxides; LOD/LOI (Chemical analyses are NIST traceable and obtained utilizing certified reference materials.)

   Physical Properties: Expansion ASTM E 228 (0-300 C); Softening Point ASTM C 338;
Density ASTM C 693
