The Glass packaging industry has some profound challenges. The cost of energy to run furnaces is expensive, but the cost of capital is worse when they are not producing.

So, colour changeovers are costly, let alone furnace refurbishing. This means campaigning is essential in planning the furnaces. The longer the campaign the better your production costs, yet delivery performance is difficult to balance. The usual challenge of seasonal products is being further complicated by competing technologies and shorter production runs by fragmenting markets, an example is the craft brewing market is here to stay.
