Abstract
Three independent methods for float glass production developed by Pilkington (England), PPG Industries (USA), and the Saratov Institute of Glass (Russia) are described. Fundamental differences between these methods are considered. Phases of the development of two-stage glass-molding technology at the Saratov Institute are described.
