CLI Technologies is a Munich technology company that develops innovative production processes for the glass and photovoltaics industry and makes these technologies available to glass manufacturers.
The customer benefit
The CLI laminated glass manufactured with our process has special product properties that offer an outstanding competitive advantage in the diverse global market for laminated glass for high-quality application segments, such as facades, fire protection glass, hurricane glass or architecturally sophisticated glass roofs. Architects, investors or civil engineers have completely new possibilities with CLI laminated glass to implement creative, lighter and CO2-reduced projects with ESG objectives.
Manufacturing
In order to provide glass manufacturers with highly productive state-of-the-art production systems with our CLI technology, we develop and work closely with one of the most internationally renowned plant manufacturers in the glass industry in engineering and design. This equips the glass manufacturers with production facilities.
Technology & Benefits
Our company CLI Technologies provides the glass industry with innovative processes and production materials for the manufacture of high-performance laminated glass. In addition to the significant product advantages of CLI laminated glass, e.g. for construction projects, the CO2 footprint of the end products is lower in comparison. An important argument for users with an ESG focus.
The LSG glass manufactured with CLI technology achieves a completely new quality for the customer in these performance criteria:
fire protection
distortion free
residual capacity
color neutrality & clarity
CO2 reduced production

Founders
Thomas Hofberger
Co-Founder / CTO
Inventor of Cold Liquid Interlayer (CLI) manufacturing technology.
The idea for this technology came about in his craft company specializing in high-end interior design, the Thomas Hofberger workshops in Taufkirchen near Munich. In addition to his technical passion and finesse, Thomas Hofberger has always been very interested in the development of new finishing and bonding technologies for stones and glass. Since taking over the business from his father, he has operated a laboratory area in his workshops for professional research, development and testing of coating and adhesive technologies.
The entire CLI technology and its patents have been transferred to the newly founded IndustrialTech start-up CLI Technologies GmbH in Munich.
Thomas Hofberger manages the development areas of our company CLI Technologies as CTO.

Our Partners
plant construction
We are working long-term with a well-known plant manufacturer on the engineering and market launch of a fully automated CLI laminated glass production line for GLASSTECH 2022. Its customers are laminated safety glass manufacturers. The focus of the system today is on the production of high-volume formats for facades, fire protection glass and glass roof constructions.
Adhesive Technologies & Certification
We develop our adhesives in-house - together with very experienced adhesive researchers and process engineers and sell them to the LSG glass manufacturers who have purchased a CLI production line from our partner
Science
Close cooperation with university research is a core element of our R&D program and another building block for our sustainable technological excellence.
