TGK - Technology, Glass and Art
The company was established in 1996, first as a trading company, but later the company portfolio was significantly expanded by custom processing of mainly coloured flat glass. We prepare glass elements for light in architecture. We cooperated with Preciosa – Lustry a.s, and currently, our main customer is Lasvit. In 2018, we produced and installed for Lasvit a glass facade for their new company building in Nový Bor. We have been organizing training seminars and workshops for the general public for many years. These workshops introduce our students to different techniques of glass processing.
Apart from big projects, we can also do all sorts of reconstructions, such as the glass floor in the National Museum in Prague and others.
According to the company´s motto: “TGK – The Whole World Made of Glass”.
In our company in Skalice, you can learn about quite progressive technology of glass processing – fusing. However, you can see other “cold” techniques of glass processing, such as Tiffany, glueing glass with UV glue, mosaic, production of beads (blown and lamp) etc. In our sample room, you will find the examples of all these techniques, as well as art objects, made by several artists in TGK during IGS. Our garden is also quite popular. There are many glass objects installed. In case you wanted to try it yourself, you can "touch" the glass in our studio.
In case you get interested in glass, we will help you with the material, tools, as well as advice.
