The IRD Advantage
True Partnership
IRD Glass is committed to building genuine, long-term partnerships with our customers. That commitment has helped us become an award-winning custom component manufacturer and trusted single-source supplier for many industry leaders. Our highly skilled, cross-trained workforce specializes in cell-based manufacturing, enabling us to integrate quickly with your production and delivery cycles while meeting your precise design, fabrication, and coating requirements. IRD Glass is frequently recognized as a model supplier at various preferred vendor conferences.
Real Customization
Using the highest-quality tools, and customizing them when needed, IRD Glass manufactures glass and ceramic components for the most demanding applications. When a project requires a completely new approach, we design proprietary equipment, fixturing, and tooling to bring it to life.
Real Service
IRD Glass has maintained an on-time delivery rate of more than 98% for the past decade. As our customers’ needs continue to grow and diversify, we continually refine our services and advance our precision manufacturing approach. Recent improvements include custom automation to reduce costs, enhanced polishing processes to improve yield, and new inspection equipment to further strengthen quality control. By building quality into every operation, we can manage quality at the source rather than relying solely on inspection.
Just Cause
At IRD Glass, our Just Cause is simple but powerful: to help make tomorrow’s dreams a reality today. It is the “why” behind our work, reaching beyond what we make and how we make it to the deeper purpose that connects our team, customers, suppliers, and community. Whether through flexible schedules, scholarships, training, charitable support, or the critical components we produce for life-saving and life-improving technologies, we believe business should serve people and help move meaningful dreams closer to reality. Our Just Cause gives us a shared purpose, one that inspires us to keep improving, keep serving, and keep building something worthy of pride.
