US-Iran War: Strait Of Hormuz Crisis Hits India’s Glass Industry | WION

The disruption of shipping and energy supplies linked to the Strait of Hormuz crisis is beginning to impact several industries in India, including glass manufacturing. The sector relies heavily on continuous fuel supply because glass furnaces must remain operational around the clock.
Industry executives say furnace operations cannot simply be stopped, as shutting them down risks major technical damage and significant financial losses. Glass plants require constant heat to maintain production, making them especially vulnerable to fuel shortages and supply disruptions.
The crisis around the Strait of Hormuz has already triggered wider economic ripple effects across India, with industries facing rising energy costs and supply pressures as shipping traffic through the key energy corridor declines.
