  • High-capacity indexing furnaces for complex windshields
  • Semi and fully automatic lamination lines with vision systems
  • PVB cutting and stretching, digital printing, batch furnaces and VA lines

Proven on the most demanding programmes

Decades of hands-on engineering across bending, lamination and assembly processes, applied to premium and high-volume automotive glass production worldwide.

Innovations

Products and processes that made history.

Some of the innovations developed by our team for the most iconic brands in automotive.

Porsche Engineering

Backlight for the Porsche Targa and lightweight composite glass for the 911: new standards of performance and weight reduction.

Advanced Display Systems

Panoramic windshields, HUD and kHUD that transform the driving experience and safety.

Tesla and Ferrari

Windshield and roof for the Cybertruck in lightweight materials, and a distinctive backlight for the Ferrari Purosangue.

What we do

Complete production solutions.

From targeted line upgrades to entire plants, such as the recent AGS installation in Belgium: we deliver projects of any scale together with leading partners and suppliers.

01

Complete line design

Design, construction, installation, commissioning and ramp-up of complete production lines, with proprietary bending and lamination technologies.

02

Plant definition

Complete definition of plants and production layouts optimized for efficiency, quality and scalability.

03

New plant construction

Proprietary technologies

An unreachable competitive advantage.

Our solutions integrate standard equipment from industry leaders — BANDO, BENTELER, SCHOLTZ — with custom machines based on our proprietary technologies, designed by our consultants and built by a network of trusted suppliers in the San Salvo industrial district in Italy.

AGS — Advanced Glass Shaping

The world's fastest external press bending line for automotive glass, able to integrate sophisticated functionality and design into laminated products.

IBF — Indexing Bending Furnaces

Indexing furnaces for the production of large complex windshields, panoramic roofs and lightweight composite products.

Smart Glass

Inline preparation processes for SPD/PDLC/BPDLC multilayer films, at the frontier of smart glass applications.

Intellectual property protection

Our solutions are entirely proprietary and not available on the market. Only Stack holds the complete engineering documentation of the integrated systems: unauthorized duplication, copying or transfer of the technology is impossible.
