New Laminated Glass Company Begins Production

Northeast Laminated Glass Corp. officially began operations on October 2. The new company, based in Jessup, Pa., is owned by two former long-time AFG employees: Larry Tumminia and Tom Zaccone.

Northeast is expected to target a variety of groups including door and window manufacturers, distributors and fabricators, and will offer products for the security, impact and flat automotive markets.

According to Tumminia, he and Zaccone saw an opportunity in this market for several reasons including the increasing amount of building codes in the impact market.

"Our mission is to be the most reliable supplier of flat laminated glass in North America," he says. He adds that there is a definite need for an independent company offering all flat laminated products.

The company currently has 30 employees.
