Vitro Architectural Glass planted two trees on July 15 at its manufacturing plant located at 400 Park Drive in Carlisle, Pa. The trees were planted to commemorate 50 years of continuous operation of the plant’s two production lines, which were commissioned in 1972. The plant manufactures flat glass, including Starphire Ultra-Clear low-iron glass and both Solarban solar control and Sungate passive low-E glasses, which are used in residential and commercial construction markets
The planting of two trees on our site is a small yet symbolic tribute to the two production lines at Carlisle that are responsible for producing glass that helps keep buildings and homes energy efficient,” said Darrell Jewell, plant manager at Vitro’s Carlisle plant.
By planting the two trees in front of the Vitro Carlisle plant, Vitro Architectural Glass highlighted the purpose of the company, which is to honour the past and innovate the future by practicing sustainable industry standards and continuously improving operations through better research and development, according to a press-release from the company. The tree planting ceremony was open to Vitro employees, contractors and the plant’s retired workers. The company has various other celebrations planned throughout the summer to honour its 50-year milestone.
