Saint Gobain

(1/3) > >>

Glen:
Does anyone know if Saint Gobain might have made large blow moulded vases, possibly in the 1930s? Maybe for Coty?

Sklounion:
Glen,
I have taken the liberty of contacting the company's HQ in France, and once I have a response, will post the translation here.
Regards,
Marcus

Glen:
Marcus, thank you so much.  I had viewed their main website and wondered what my chances of doing that might be.......but as I once asked for a tarte des pommes de terre instead of a tarte des pommes, who knows what I might end up with! My French is very, very lacking  :oops:

Thank you again. You are very kind.

Glen

Ivo:
I think SG could not possibly say what they manufactured and when; they have sold out their consumer glass factories (at least half a dozen of them including Duralex etc.) to Bormioli Rocco and concentrate on float production and building materials. Not even sure they still run Flaconnerie - the perfume bottle business....

Sklounion:
Hi Glen and Ivo,

Ivo, the company still owns the flaconnerie:

Glen do you want me to enquire further, re archive etc?

Regards,

Marcus
