    Hercules Glass Tech Focuses on Offshore Market
  • (Article on The Daily Industrial News, daily newspaper on Japanese and global industries)

    Hercules Glass Tech Co., Ltd. is now focusing on offshore market in particular Southeast countries for promoting its products, crime prevention, ballistic resistant and blast resistant glass. Taking opportunities of exhibitions, Hercules tries to find out agents and licensees of its production technologies. Growing number of terrorist's attacks worldwide makes people more concerned about safety and security, which will lead to expansion of Hercules' business in overseas countries and Japan alike. In 2020, Hercules foresees its turnover of crime prevention, ballistic resistant and blast resistant glass products will reach Japanese yen five hundred million, ten times of that of 2017.

    Hercules will enhance overseas marketing, where SMEs have better chances of business, while domestic market has been under control of large-sized manufacturers. Exhibitions are good opportunities for Hercules to appeal advantages over other companies, such as various certifications granted by globally-recognized authorities, directly to top managements of foreign companies. In addition, Hercules products have more than twice as high weatherability as other manufacturers' ballistic resistant glass made of plastics components. Other advantages including availability of fabrication in a small space (factory) with compact machines, eliminating large-scale power supply systems will work particularly in the countries of poor power grid.

    Hercules is a fabricator of crime prevention, ballistic resistant and blast resistant glass products having superb mechanical strength and weatherability by virtue of its proprietary lamination technologies using liquid form of resin. Ballistic resistant glass has been delivered to the Ministry of Defense, the U.S. military bases, government facilities in Japan, while the Ministry of Defense of Malaysia, embassies of various countries, Thai banks, cash transport vehicles, VIP's villas, prisons, major jewelry shops, airport money changers, etc. in Malaysia. Hercules has also supplied those products to customers in Singapore, Cambodia, The Philippines and Laos.
