Glass.com’s mission is to be a full service web and information portal about all things glass including architectural, residential and automotive glass as well as related glass products such as tabletops, shower doors, mirrors, windows, window film, and more. It provides information to consumers and offers referrals to quality glass service providers throughout the United States. The portal plans to add additional product areas beyond float glass products, such as eyeglasses and scientific glass, as well as increase the number of countries it serves as it grows.

Glass.com is the handiwork of Lyle Hill and Debra Levy, who together combine glass industry know-how with glass information and media services.
