Pushing the boundaries
Our team of visionaries have been dedicated towards the single goal of perfecting the art of opalware for 35 years.
We are passionate to serve not just our consumers but also the environment. With this belief, we started an eco-friendly, state-of-the-art opal glass manufacturing facility at Uttarakhand in 2008. The will to take care of all the aspects of our society through innovation gives us a technological edge in bringing finesse to our products.
La Opala collaborated with South Korea’s Hosan Glass for technical assistance to manufacture opal glassware in 1988.
A range of 24% lead crystal glassware (Solitaire) was introduced by La Opala in technical collaboration with South Korea’s Doosan Glass in 1996. This diversification was funded through an IPO in 1995.
Fostering the values of consolidated and consistent growth, today La Opala has gone beyond being just an opal glassware brand to be perceived as a 'Designer Collection'. With development standards in place that match the guidelines set forth by Food & Drug Administration (FDA), USA, we have received the ISO 9001:2000 certification.
