The culprits are the American Guardian (148 million euros of fine), the British Pilkington (140 million), French Saint-Gobain (133,9 million) and Japanese Asahi (65 million). The agreement related to flat glass used in the sector of construction (basic float glass, laminated glass, glass untreated used for the manufacture of the mirrors...). According to the Commission, between the beginning of 2004 and at the beginning of 2005, the four companies "managed to increase the prices or to stabilize them by means of a series of meetings and other contacts illicit". In 2004, their sales in Europe with independent customers, who transform this flat glass into windows with double glazing or glass fireproofed for the large buildings and the dwellings, reached 1,7 billion euros. "the Commission will not tolerate that the consumers and the intermediate companies are injured and deprived of the advantages of the single market by companies which collude to fix prices",declared the Competition Commissioneer Neelie Kroes.     AFP 2006   41.6 1.64   billion Eu€ 2005   35.11 1.26   billion Eu€ 2005 Suspected by the European Commission of forming a glass cartel in Europe.     AGEFI 2004   32.02 1.08   billion Eu€ Boursorama 2003   29.59 1.04   billion Eu€ 2002   30.27 1.04   billion Eu€ 2001   30.39 1.13   billion Eu€ 2000   28.82 1.52   billion Eu€ 2000   1.783 billion Eu€ Actualinfo. 1999   22.95 1.23   billion Eu€ 1998   17.82 1.1   billion Eu€ 1997   17.87 0.94   billion US$ 1996   91.38 4.32   billion FF Financial delinquency in 2007
