History
Foundation
Ocean Glass was founded in 1979 in Thailand, initially focusing on manufacturing quality drinking glasses for household use and commercial clients such as hotels and restaurants. From its inception, the company also developed customized glassware for corporate entities and organizations, including promotional items and gifts. 2
Rather than limiting itself to basic glass production, the company’s early strategy emphasized competing through product quality, functionality, design, and manufacturing capability.
Expansion into a major manufacturer
Over subsequent decades, Ocean Glass significantly expanded its production capabilities and product portfolio. Its offerings became increasingly targeted at the professional food-service industry alongside retail consumers. The company describes itself as one of Asia’s leading glassware manufacturers, highlighting a combination of manufacturing expertise, product design, and operational efficiency. 3
Stock-market listing
In 1993, Ocean Glass became a publicly listed company on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) under the stock symbol OGC. The manufacture and sale of table glassware remain its principal business activities. 4
International expansion
Following its public listing, Ocean Glass developed an extensive international distribution network. The company states that its products now reach more than 90 countries worldwide, making export sales a significant component of its overall business. 5
The Ocean brand
The consumer-facing Ocean® brand is positioned around enhancing everyday drinking and dining experiences. Its stated purpose is to provide “life’s pleasures” through quality glassware. 6
The brand positioning integrates three core concepts:
- Functionality: Glasses designed for practical everyday and professional use.
- Aesthetics: Attention to shape, proportions, and contemporary design.
- Hospitality: Products intended to elevate drinking and dining experiences.
Consequently, the brand occupies a distinct market space bridging mass-market household tableware and professional hospitality glassware.
Product range
Ocean Glass produces a diverse array of glassware rather than concentrating on a single category. Current product lines include:
- Water glasses: Ranging from simple tumblers to sophisticated designs for everyday table settings.
- Iced-beverage glasses: Various styles suited for soft drinks, juices, and other cold beverages.
- Beer glasses: Shapes and capacities designed specifically for different beer presentation styles.
- Wine glasses: Manufactured for both household and professional food-service applications.
- Whisky glasses: Tumblers and specialized glassware for whisky and spirits.
- Coffee and tea: Glassware extending beyond conventional drinking vessels for hot beverage service.
- Dining ware: Glass items intended for table presentation and dining.
- Storage jars: Glass containers for household storage.
These categories encompass water, iced beverages, beer, wine, whisky, coffee and tea, storage jars, and dining ware.

A defining characteristic of Ocean Glass is its strong focus on the food-service and hospitality industry. Beyond household consumers, the company supplies glassware to:
- Fine-dining restaurants

Lucaris®
Ocean Glass also operates LUCARIS, a premium-oriented glassware brand. The corporate website presents Ocean and Lucaris as distinct entities within the group’s brand portfolio. 12
Market position
Ocean Glass holds a diversified position in the global glassware market, functioning simultaneously as a Thai manufacturer, an Asian producer, a global exporter, a consumer tableware brand, a hospitality supplier, and a customized B2B manufacturer. This multi-faceted model allows the company to serve various market segments rather than relying exclusively on retail consumers.
The SET describes Ocean Glass as a manufacturer and distributor of high-quality glassware serving homes, restaurants, hotels, gifts, souvenirs, and promotional applications.
International presence
Ocean Glass exports products to more than 90 countries. 13 Its international positioning is particularly relevant to the hospitality sector, where restaurant chains and hotel groups often require standardized glassware across multiple locations.
Historically, the company has established international commercial operations to support these markets, including Ocean Glass Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. in China.
