Situated in the historic KwaZulu Natal town of Estcourt, Glamosa Glass is proud to be one of the few companies in South Africa which produces a range of glassware items. Established just over fifty years ago, in January 1958, they pride themselves in the fact that they were the first company to produce glass mosaic in South Africa, and presently manufacture a beautifully elegant range of recycled glassware which includes recycled glassware, opaline products and glass mosaic

The company started operating from a small factory at Elandsfontein, near Germiston, and early production methods and skills were based on renowned Italian styles in the manufacture of colourful glass mosaic. The demand for glass mosaic increased and with rapid growth in the market Glamosa's business expanded significantly, until in 1970 a new factory was built at Estcourt, , and the company head office relocated to Johannesburg. During that favourable time of expansion, Glamosa also began exporting quality glass mosaic to numerous international locations, whilst still focusing on supplying the local market in South Africa.

As the years went by, ownership of the company changed hands, entering into a new era seeing their production methods being improved and processes once again expanding. In the early 1980's Glamosa began producing a new range of lampware glass products, which included numerous blown, pressed and spun products. Presently Glamosa specialises in production of opaline (white) and flint (clear) glass lampware items, and their production processes incorporate machine manufactured semi-automated products. Due to popular demand Glamosa also produces an extensive range of handmade mouth blown glassware items, including candle shades, jars and vases.

Visitors are provided with the excellent opportunity to participate in interesting and informative guided tours of the factory where they can follow the manufacturing process and witness the talented craftsmen making magnificent glass products. Tours are run from Monday thriugh to Friday, by arrangement, and the cost is only R3,00 per person.
