K&K History
K&K Glass was founded in Arndell Park in 1993 by two directors. Initially, the company focused on bulk merchandising of blocks and loose sheets to commercial fabricators, glass and glazing companies. One year later, the company invested in new straight line polishing machines and automatic glass cutting lines to provide cut-to-size laminated glass.
In 1998, K&K Glass recognized the changing needs of the glass market and invested in state-of-the-art machinery from European manufacturers such as Schiatti, Hegla, Bottero, and Bavelloni to concentrate on cutting and processing glass. In 2000, K&K Glass invested in a new automatic laminate cutting line from Hegla, capable of cutting laminated glass up to 4280mm x 3210mm. These investments allowed K&K Glass to become the largest independent supplier of cut-to-size laminated glass in NSW.
Recognizing another shift in the Australian glass market in 2005, K&K Glass invested in state-of-the-art toughening furnaces, CNC machines, waterjet processing, and screen printing facilities to meet the increasing demand for toughened glass.
In 2015, K&K Glass added a fully featured custom laminating line to its existing vacuum bag facilities to accommodate the increasing demand for custom laminated glass solutions. K&K Glass continues to invest in technology, including a new North Glass low E toughening furnace, additional double edge processing lines, advanced water treatment facilities, custom glass painting facilities, and a new Hegla Rapid Line automatic float line commissioned in March 2018.
Today, K&K Glass not only provides core products but also specializes in custom laminated glass, digital ceramic printing, and energy-efficient insulated glass units. With a 5,000m2 factory and state-of-the-art machinery, K&K Glass is dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of the Australian glass market.

K&K Glass operates a range of state of the art straight line and double edge processing lines designed to accurately grind down clean cut straight edges with an arrissed, penciled or polished edge finish. Option for mitred edges.
Arrissed edges are primarily used in single glazed toughened applications and IGU toughened components. Polished edges are primarily glazed with an exposed edge that requires a high grade polished finish.
The K&K Production facility houses:
1 large double edge processing line
-
Min size: 400mm x 400mm
-
Max size: 4200mm x 2400mm

2 single edge processing lines
-
Min size: 100mm x 100mm
-
Max size: 3000mm x 3000mm
CNC Processing is ideal when accurate and tight tolerances are required or where curves with a polished finish are necessary. Glass specifications are uploaded into the machines controller via CAD program to ensure there is no possibility for human error.
The CNC process is more precise than single or double edge processing and can produce complex shapes that would be almost impossible to achieve with traditional straight and double edge processing.
The K&K Production facility houses:
Intermac CNC
- Min size: 450mm x 450mm
- Max size: 4100mm x 1900mm
Ideal for high speed precise shape cutting of shapes, holes and cut outs where a ground edge finish is adequate.

The toughened glass process heats glass to temperatures typically around 600°C then rapidly cools the glass by blasting cold air for different time intervals depending on the glass thickness and type. After the process the glass is now a grade A safety glass 5 times stronger than standard annealed float.
The K&K Production facility houses:
Furnace 1
- Min size: 300mm x 100mm
- Max size: 4500mm x 2500mm
Furnace 2
- Min size: 300mm x 100mm
- Max size: 6000mm x 2800mm
* Max size for 4mm = 2800mm x 2500mm
Heat Soaking is a process that is designed to expose NiS inclusions in toughened glass. The process involves placing the toughened glass inside a heat soaking chamber and raising the temperature to approximately 300ºC to accelerate nickel sulfide expansion. This causes glass containing nickel sulfide impurities to explode in the heat soak chamber, thus reducing the risk of potential spontaneous breakage once installed.
The K&K Production facility houses:
Heat Soak Furnace
- Min size: 300mm x 300mm
- Max size: 6000mm x 3000mm
