William J. Blenko

Most of the history section is about William J. Blenko before the company started. Should William J. Blenko have his own page or should that be deleted? Tripnoted (talk) 01:46, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Big Redo

This Wikipedia article was changed substantially on December 11, 2024. Although the new version may seem larger than the typical article, it is necessary because so-called "facts" about the company are often wrong or misleading. TwoScars (talk) 17:04, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Flat Glass

Reading this article, one will notice that there is no mention of flat-glass making during the 21st century. None of the newspaper articles from that time mention flat glass. During my tour of the factory, I did not see any flat glass being made. I later did some original research in November 2024-this is why it is not mentioned in the article-by contacting Blenko concerning flat glass. Their response was that they are not producing flat glass because of the overwhelming orders for tableware. They currently cannot produce both at once. They hope to return to producing flat glass in the future, but no plans have been made. TwoScars (talk) 17:11, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
