ideco gmbh - Who we are-and what we do.

We have been supplying glass for over 30 years. Mainly glass domes which are also known as glass hoods, glass cuffs, glass lintels or watch lintels. Our customers include designers, museums, artists, collectors and private individuals worldwide. Ideco also supplies custom-made glass products or glass fabrications for existing chandeliers or silver menages, for example. Glass lampshades, glass replicas, bottles and decanters are produced in the finest craftsmanship.
Together with our glassmakers in the Bavarian Forest and in Bohemia, we are able to supply glass to customer specifications.

At our site in Iphofen – Hellmitzheim , we practice glass craftsmanship using the so-called fusing or melting glass process. This results in glass items for the gift and home sector.

The ideco - glass production techniques

Hollow glass production

Glassonderanfertigung blasen

In hollow glass production, the glassmaker uses the glass pipe to remove a “glass batch” from the furnace. The viscous, liquid glass at a temperature of approx. 1200C° is blown into a mold made of metal or wood or formed freely. They are used to make vases, mugs, glasses, lamps and many other beautiful things.

ideco glass fusing

Fusing Glas

Fusing is a modern, creative glass technique. Fusing from the English “to fuse” which simply describes a glass melting process. Different colored glass panes, glass crumbs or glass powder are fused together at approx. 800-900C°. The fusing technique became popular in America in the 1960s. There is archaeological evidence that this melting technique was already being practiced in Egypt 4000 years ago.
We also use the fusing technique as an upcycling method to create beautiful glass objects from cullet.
