Press Glass has set a precedent in the industry by developing and obtaining the European Technical Assessment (ETA) for cylindrically curved glass. This achievement was made possible through collaboration with the Institute of Ceramics and Building Materials in Kraków and in accordance with EU regulations.
The ETA, officially issued on May 19, 2023, confirms the performance assessment of cylindrically curved tempered and laminated glass, and it serves as a basis for the CE marking on these products. Prior to this, cylindrically curved glass lacked a harmonized standard, limiting its conditional use in specific facilities.

Press Glass' dedication to the development of the European Assessment Document (EAD) and ETA has allowed them to become the sole company in Europe authorized to issue declarations of performance for these products.
Why is the ETA so important to Press Glass?
The ETA holds great importance for Press Glass, as it not only confirms the quality and safety standards of their curved glass but also grants them a competitive advantage. With the CE marking, the company can freely sell their products throughout the EEA area without the need for additional markings or certifications.
This assures customers and public authorities that the glass produced by Press Glass complies with the necessary regulations when it comes to the safety of curved tempered and laminated glass in the European market.
Compliance with EU safety standards
In conclusion, Press Glass' successful development of the ETA for cylindrically curved glass has positioned them as a pioneering company in the industry.
