Project Overview
OperaMetrix implemented a dynamic display solution for Verallia's new electric glass furnace facility in Cognac, inaugurated on September 10, 2024.
The Innovation
Verallia commissioned OperaMetrix to digitalize their production line using our specialized dynamic display solution. This new electric furnace produces white glass at 180 tonnes daily capacity.
Environmental Impact
The facility supports Verallia's decarbonization goals. The company targets a 46% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030 compared to 2019 baseline, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
Display System Components
Our implementation includes:
- 65-inch professional dynamic screens along production lines
- Ergonomic monitors in operator cabins
- Summary displays in offices and break rooms
- Mobile deployment capability for tablets and smartphones
Operational Benefits
The system enables rapid response to defects, preventing product loss. When failures occur on bottle production lines, affected glass returns to the furnace for reprocessing—quick detection minimizes waste and improves productivity while reducing carbon footprint.
Visual Management Advantages
- Enhanced team communication
- Real-time performance monitoring
- Rapid anomaly detection
- Employee engagement through transparency
- Optimized operational decisions
Conclusion
This project demonstrates how digital visual management can simultaneously improve operational efficiency and support environmental sustainability goals in the glass manufacturing industry.
