[Hungary] Csonkaglas

Hungarian household and laboratory glassware manufacturer, Csonkaglas, is aiming to significantly increase sales, especially export sales, with the acquisition of production equipment and moulds for oven proof dishes from Germany's Schott Jenaer Glas. Csonkaglas expects sales to increase 10% in 2005, and exports to account for as much as 80% of sales, up from 50%. Csonkaglas previously exported to Austria and Germany, but will now widen its sales to other EU countries, Russia, Japan and the Middle East.
