Founded by Donald and Roy Curnow, the company passed to Jerry Curnow in 1973 and is today led by third-generation owner Nels Curnow, who has stewarded it since 2003.

Technology Advantage Rice Lake Glass invests in technology that makes our team more capable and our work less physically punishing — for everyone's long-term benefit. In the field, we operate both a THOM glass manipulator and a SmartLift glass manipulator, giving our installers the right tool for any lift situation and keeping heavy glass moving safely without putting backs and bodies at risk. In the shop, we run a Tigerstop automated saw and RhinoFab fabrication system, which drive precision and speed while reducing the repetitive strain that comes with manual cutting and fab work. These aren’t just efficiency tools — they’re a direct investment in the people who use them every day.
