As part of the National Ornamental and Miscellaneous Metals Association (NOMMA) convention, which took place March 2-5 in New Orleans, members had the opportunity to tour the Covington, La., headquarters of Dependable Glass Works.

Norman Foxworth, president of Dependable, along with employees, welcomed the group. Visitors toured two fabrication buildings, and also viewed new designs in glass and learned about laminated glass used in flooring, stair treads and other applications. They also learned about Dependable's new glass product, Magic Vue glass, which can change from opaque to clear at the flip of a switch.

"We were honored to be one of only two locations in the state of Louisiana selected by the NOMMA organization," said Foxworth. "For more than 38 years we have been servicing the glass industry with quality products and services. We have had architects, designers and glass companies from all over the world visit our facility. Our most recent international visitors were from South Korea."

Foxworth was also selected to moderate a seminar during the convention that focused on the latest innovations in the glass industry.
