What Tss - Glass Machinery Sales Inc. does

TSS - Glass Machinery Sales Inc. is a US-based industrial equipment distributor founded in 2006 by Cliff Green and headquartered in a 3,000 sq. ft. facility in Lindon, Utah. The company serves as the exclusive or primary US sales representative for 14 global glass-processing machinery manufacturers, including GTM, LandGlass, Tenon, Haigao, MersGlass Ecolam, Deman, Direct Print, Dynamiki Industrial, Ebbco, BVC, IGP Tools, Koja USA, SuisseNano, and Yinrui. TSS does not develop proprietary manufacturing technology; instead it curates, sells, installs, and services an externally built portfolio spanning CNC drilling/milling machines, tempering furnaces (continuous, convection, specialty, and double-curvature configurations), insulating glass (IG) production lines, non-autoclave laminating equipment, glass washing and seaming machines, conveyors, manipulators, water filtration systems, and smart-factory automation solutions.

The company monetizes through four revenue streams: (1) one-time machinery sales sourced from its represented manufacturers, (2) consumables and spare parts sold through both direct sales and an e-commerce storefront (CNC pods, diamond tooling, polishing wheels, vacuum cups, fabrication supplies), (3) installation and repair services delivered by in-house service engineers (concentrated on Tenon products), and (4) recurring service contracts for ongoing maintenance and support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with high-value capital equipment transactions.

The go-to-market motion is sales-led and relationship-driven, anchored by direct phone/email engagement, an inbound 'Request a Quote' funnel on tss-sales.com, and a presence at major industry trade shows (GlassBuild 2026, GLASSTEC 2026, GFAB Chicago 2026). Cliff Green's 22 years of prior hands-on experience in glass fabrication plants is positioned as the company's primary differentiator, supplemented by a local spare-parts inventory that enables rapid emergency response for customers. The customer base is horizontal — US glass fabrication companies serving architectural, automotive, and industrial end markets — with no publicly disclosed enterprise anchor contracts or named end customers beyond distribution partner relationships.
