Product Development & Mould Design Seminar at Encirc, Derrylin

Following the seminar held for Encirc in Chester last October, it was time for a new edition, this time at the Derrylin plant in Northern Ireland, with a stronger focus on Product and Mould Design.

@ENNIONSTUDIO led the sessions on conceptual design, container requirements, and how to translate them into production-ready glass containers, while @Empakglass focused on bringing those concepts to life through their expertise in production processes and tool development.

The training covered a wide range of key topics, including:

🔹 The roadmap for container conceptual design and key requirements

🔹 Principles of production-ready container design and lightweighting

🔹 Fundamentals of mould design and performance

🔹 Practical applications and optimization strategies

🔹 Parison design for all forming processes: Blow & Blow (B&B), Narrow Neck Press & Blow (NNPB), and Wide Mouth Press & Blow

It was fascinating to apply real-world cases to the guidelines, correlate them with IS timings, and even troubleshoot potential glass defects.

This hands-on approach helps glass plants start production from a stronger foundation, reduce defects, anticipate critical issues, and ultimately shorten time to market, while also strengthening communication between departments within the plant.

A huge thank-you to all participants for their passion and engagement, which showcases the qualities that make Product Development and Mould Design such vital parts of the glass industry supply chain.

We look forward to new challenges and to continuing our mission of finding smart, effective solutions for the Glass Industry!
