Pgw glass works

I have heard Pgw glass works is in negotiations to sell the glass business. Anyone know anything?

It would be Kohlberg & Company LLC, making the offer if anyone did. But no, not heard anything like that. Since they sold Lynx, the "glass business" is basically all that PGW is.

Something is going on in recent months because their Dot 904 glass which is made in the states is absolute crap!I attribute that to the employees not being entirely happy with the rumors wether they are true or not it affects quality?

If you read the article about Corning yesterday, that they are planning something BIG as far as auto glass goes, it is easier to buy the wheel rather than try to reinvent it.
