Hundreds of workers are occupying the plant in Waterford in southeast Ireland to keep the factory open after its receiver, David Carson, tried to lock them out. They have occupied the workplace since 30 January.
Workers describe it as "our factory" - and it is. They are running a six-hour shift system to occupy the building... The furnace must stay working for production at the factory to continue. If the furnace stops, the glass will solidify and the repairs would cost 8 million euros.
