Bullseye Glass Co. is a responsible company who has always put public safety at the forefront. They've followed all regulations and worked hard to install additional equipment to ensure the safety of the surrounding area.
Brilliant colors. Excellent customer service. Great products.
The highest quality sheet glass AND American made, I am pleased to say I use it exclusively in my art. The best customer service, this company goes above and beyond to support artists and expand our knowledge. Bullseye, continue to make our world a beautiful place with the magic of creativity and art!
First, good chances that the day care center wasn't there when Bullseye opened it furnaces. But more importantly, the monsters are not the company. Bullseye has diligent in its efforts to maintain good air quality. They have tried to work with state and national regulatory agencies. And it doesn't appear, from the outside, that the issues lie there. Seems to be a Governor that is trying to make a name for herself prior to the election.
Beautiful glass - Am sure that environmental issues will be resolved quickly.
Bullseye is an awesome company who put their customers and employees first. Quality product, great customer service, excellent instructors. When they were first notified of the air quality issues, they voluntarily stopped producing with the metals that were the issue even though they had just passed their last DEQ air quality test. They are currently making changes and installing air filtration systems that will meet even the most demanding standards. They need time to make these changes.
Maybe some of you haters out there should check your facts. Heavy equipment was being used within 25 feet of the air monitor. Heavy equipment uses leaded diesel. This was more than likely the cause of the lead readings picked up by the monitor and not Bullseye Glass. Instead of jumping to conclusions do some investigation and don't assume.
Total class act, in the face of adversity or otherwise. LOVE this place!
What a wonderful experience it is to shop at Bullseye. The knowledge and experience of the folks there is beyond compare. Having taken classes there and toured the shop many times over the many years I have been a glass artist, it is apparent safety and the environment are tops in their goals as they go about their work in making the glass. They are a wonderful supporter and asset to the art community.
This place is run by $ hungry owners. They only care about making a profit. They care little about the health of their neighbors, do you think they care about customer service as long as it gets them a sale?
Bullseye manufactures the best fusing glass available in the world. They have a great staff and a spotless factory. They revolutionized the art glass world and their influence is is unmistakable.
I've been a customer of bullseye glass for many years. They're a wonderful company with amazing glass and customer service that can out beat any company. The variety of products are unmatched and their quality of products are superb. Many are rating this fantastic company low due to hearsay and twisted truths. The recent attacks on glass manufacturers is unfair and those who seek to only destroy have risen to the occasion to shame a company that most didn't know existed until an opportunity arose to create some drama out of misheard matters. This company is the best in sheet glass production period. Stop attacking the glass factories and stop trying to shut down artists.
Bullseye provides wonderful customer service and the quality of their glass is excellent.
Great company with a deep devotion to it's customers and the art glass world. Also very focused on doing right for the local community, if just given the chance to cooperate.
Before chastising a company, do your research, and try not to be led by those with an ulterior motive.
Bullseye Glass is my go to glass manufacturer. It is the only glass I use. Colors are brilliant and customer service is great. They are always innovative and fresh. They also offer classes and instructions for beginners and professionals alike.
I use Bullseye's resource center in NY and they are wonderful! The glass is beautiful, their tutorials are awesome, and their workshops help me take my art to the next level.
I know there is some concern over environmental issues, however if you look deeper into the story several facts become clear:
1) Bullseye was compliant with the regulations until there was a "reinterpretation" by the government agency. Bullseye then stopped production and started meeting the new interpretation. Those stricter regulations are not applied to other larger glass companies like bottle manufacturers, who produce vastly larger amounts of glass and are considerd safe even with larger toxins concentrations in their exhaust.
2) Bullseye is located in a historical manufacturing district where there is most likely old toxins from previous factories. Some of the test samples were taken very close to a construction site that was disturbing soil from old factory sites.
3) Just before the regulations applying to small art glass manufacturers were reinterpreted, a proposal was created to develop the area that Bullseye is located in. An unusual coincidence?
A fantastic US company with a global reach. Bullseye's wonderful products are unsurpassed for compatibility and range throughout the world. The company itself holds environmental and safety standards in high regard and will do everything they can to ensure standards are met and exceeded. I recommend Bullseye to all glass artists and designers worldwide.
So sad what is happen in Oregon this is a business and they should be giving a chance to do the what they need to stay around for a long term. They do a lot for Oregon and the world for that mater I am a small business and with out Bulleye I may not have my business in Colorado these things need to be taken in consideration before the Governor puts people like Bulleye out on the street
I only use Bullseye glass in my work and love it. The range of colours etc is wonderful!
Very helpful employees, great company offering an outstanding selection of glass and classes. They focus not only on the artistic component of glass, but on safety and responsibility factors. Their position as one of, if not the, top leader in this industry is well deserved.
Super helpful! Always make you feel like your needs are important as a customer to be met. They care about their customers esults and experiences with their materials
Bullseye glass is the best on the market. :) Thank you, Bullseye, for providing such a wonderful product for glass artisans.
Great place,good people,we need to keep them in business.They are NOT totally responsible for the mess the collation has said they were! It's a witch hunt and Bulleye happens to be near them.
Exceptional glass company. Excellent customer service. Excellent products
I am using bullseye glass for 24 years now, they have great products and wonderful customer service, I always got great help when needed !!
By all standards, Bullseye glass is a small company. But they supply their art glass to thousands of other small businesses across the world, yes the world, including my glass studio. They have worked diligently to resolve the current air issues, but it's almost impossible to survive the witch hunt that has ensued. The state of Oregon, DEC, and the community needs to work together to resolve these issues. It would be a travesty to see this company shut down. There are solutions!!!
I have never had a problem they are fantastic! they adhered to every safety protocol. how were they to know that the protocols *put in place by the government* were not enough?! They are doing everything in their power to fix their manufacturing process, and they are an amazing company and I'm proud to support them!
Love using Bullseye colors for all my fusing projects.
I have used Bullseye glass for 18 years. It is always reliable in color and workability. I am completely dependent on it for my work. Also the Bullseye Glass Company is wonderful with their clients, providing help above and beyond the norm.
Fantastic small business who supply me with great quality artisan glass. Great customer service.
Excellent glass company with beautiful colors and great education. Give them a chance to address environmental concerns with different technology.
Bullseye service is impeccable and the quality of their products sets the industry standard. In addition, Bullseye is a beacon in the community and committed to protecting the environment. Can't say enough about this top notch company.
Bullseye glass is the premiere supplier of art glass specially manufactured for glass fusing. Their commitment to artists, education and the growth of fused glass as a medium is unparalleled, as is their commitment to the quality of the neighborhood that they've been a part of for decades. Thousands of fused glass artists around the globe depend on Bullseye to supply them with the materials to create the art that supports their families.
Beautiful glass for slow dying art we produce. We will continue to use this magnificent glass to produce stained and fused glass art as long as it is available. As a stained glass restoration and repair service being able to match glass is very important, not only to our clients but to the historical value of the art work we repair.
Bullseye glass is the main reason i am a budding glass artist. The vibrancy of colour is second to none. I support bullseye in its fight to be a responsible business environmentally as they have voluntarily taken steps to improve processes and shouldnt be penalised by US Officials for doing it. They should be suppored as a valuable assest for both its internal market and its world wide trade.
I support this company 100% and I know they will do whatever it takes to continue to be a valuable contribution to the industry and the community they live in.
Great people and artists who support arts programs internationally. I always look forward to their educational videos on new materials and techniques.
Bullseye provides excellent customer service, knowledge about glass, and care about the community. They are of the community. They have been operating within the law and care about the CCLC. They provide the products to businesses internationally. 35% of their business is international. Pretty amazing for us in Portland to have a small business with that kind of recognition throughout the world.
Total high class operation on all levels. Excellent customer service and awesome tech support. Such a treat to create with their beautiful glass!
Wonder, caring customer service and quality product!!!!!
I've been using Bullseye glass exclusively for the past 6 years. It's by far the best quality and the beautiful color palette is like no other. Please support Bullseye...it supports me and my passion in glass art!
I have closely observed Bullseye through this environmental challenge. I am a supporter of the environment AND science. I hate the politicizing of real issues when politicizing is only a means of lining the pockets of favored constituents, not the public at large.
Bullseye has been conscientious and proactive. They have been ahead of the curve on this, and have looked into the real reason for the contamination. They have solid science behind them, and presented the REAL science to the governor.
The governor has screwed them over and has refused to work with them... who gains??? Reasonable people must ask, who gains???
I stand with Bullseye and their fabulous art glass and their community.
I have been working with glass from Bullseye for several years. Customer service, product, reliability, and responsibility have always, always been excellent. This company has demonstrated honorable practices in all instances that I know of. I will be a customer forever!!
I have been using Bullseye glass exclusively since I started fusing. They are a great company and provide fantastic customer service. They care about their employees and the surrounding area. Please don't put an American owned and operated business out of business.
Bullseye cares both about their customers and their community. They make a fantastic product and provide amazing educational support. They are really trying to work with the agencies over emissions. If the community will give them a chance, I'm sure they will prove to support a safer environment for future generations.
Bullseye are brilliant ethical company, who put their staff, customers and those around them first.
Love Bullseye! Have taken a few fused glass classes here and they have been very well presented and organized by friendly knowledgeable instructors. Thank you! Registered for another class in Jan. 2020, too. Looking forward to learning more. So much fun!
Best color glass supplier that's located in this country!
Great product, great service, great management. I agree with others. I completely trust that they will do everything they can to meet and exceed all environmental standards. Those NOT in the business need not review here. Their opinion is not valuable to me.
Amazing company. Responsible, caring, and customer- and community-focused. The company is cooperating and doing everything in its power to satisfy, even exceed environmental requirements. It seems there is more to this tirade than simply 'care' for the environment.
Bullseye has supported me as an artist for many years with the education, support and supplies that I need for success.
Makes the best damn glass for fusing and kiln-casting. Should be applauded (not punished) for leading the colored art glass industry in implementing best practices for safe and healthy manufacturing.
Wonderful products. My new favorite creative medium!
Bullseye glass is a Northwest jewel. How fortunate we are to have this company here to help all the glass artists. Yes, they have had some problems but they have also been extremely quick to deal with them. We the glass artists of the NW need and deserve to have access to this companies glass and it's creativity.
Wonderful company. Doing everything they can to fix the problem. They create beautiful glass, keep thousands employed because of it and wish them the best.
The world needs more companies like Bullseye. Color and creativity are as nessesary as sleep and breathing to an artist.
I had the wonderful opportunity to take a class at the Bullseye Portland location. The instructors and the staff went out of their way to make sure all students were comfortable in their understanding of the techniques being taught and even in the lunch provided. Our tour of the facilities was totally awesome! Watching and participating in the glass casting was an experience I will never forget!!
I cannot believe all the options and colors they can provide . What service and products they have at their disposal. Love these guys!
Makes quality art glass. Works hard to be a responsible corporate citizen. Love them.
Great selection of glass. The main entrance is on the west side of the building.
Bullseye sells quality glass and products, has wonderful video lessons and honestly haven't even needed customer service because every order arrives accurately and promptly!
Awesome glass! I have been a loyal Bullseye customer for the last 15 years! Love their colors and consistency of their glass.
One of the most honest companies I know. Willing to work with customers and with the state. Great customer service, honest pricing, super supplies! Hang in there, BE!
Beautiful products serving a unique niche industry. Great customer service.
I have always loved working with their glass. 100% safe to use and breathe, very reliable consistent results. The company is very easy to work with employees are always willing to answer questions and help me come up with solutions. I especiall enjoy working with their Frits and irid glass.
I started fusing glass in 2010 with Spectrum Glass. I quickly moved to Bullseye because I liked their color palette and hand made textures better for my work. I am an avid environmentalist, have worked for the Sierra Club, helped clean up the LA River, participated in recycle programs wherever I live. You get the picture. When I learned that heavy metals had been found in the moss in Bullseye's neighborhood, I followed the story closely, because clean air comes before art. I learned that Bullseye had been in full compliance with DEQ regulations up to this report, and as soon as they learned of the problem, they voluntarily ceased production of the glasses that were implicated as possible sources of the problem (even though there was no evidence to confirm this suspicion). They constructed a "bag house" (a filter for their furnace) at great expense for a small business and were in the process of finding out from the DEQ if they could restart production when the recent shut down order came from the (totally misinformed IMO) governor of Oregon. I believe Bullseye has been an honorable partner in the search for the causes of heavy metal pollution in Portland and I hope that the city and state will work with them to enable them to stay in business in a way that is healthy for the environment and viable for their bottom line. They are one of only two companies that make the raw materials I use every day. If they are forced out of business by rash policy makers, it will set a terrible precedent for small businesses and will choke an entire field of art (and the businesses who support it).
Bullseye manufactures the premier fusing glass in the industry. There is no match for their color selection and quality.
Love the glass :)
Wish people could read and think, instead of believe what they hear.
Amazing glass to use but even better they are an American company, employing American workers!!
Bullseye has always been a valuable source for my art. The people have been awesome and helpful and made each visit to their store a wonderful experience. The glass I buy is of the utmost quality and the colors are amazing. I love Bullseye!
Bullseye is one of the best fused glass manufacture in the world. They not only collaborated in the development of fused glass they gave been innovating and elevating this art form ever since. They have a dedicated group of friendly knowlagable employees that are happy to assist you. They also provide the casual fused with tons of projects and information via their web site! Thus is amazing company. As a side note, they operated within EPA guidelines and with a permit. When the air quality survey was released in Portland Bullseye vole tally haunted production and installed a filtration system vowing to be the cleanest manufacturer of art glass in the country.
Bullseye are fantastic. They produce top quality glass and help so many artists from all over the globe to make successes of their businesses.
Bullseye creates the most Beautiful colors of glass! I've been working with it it since 2006 and want to continuue working with them inthe future!!! Love my Bulleseye 90 coe!!!!!
Bullseye makes fabulous glass. There's a danger for pollutants every day and if you drive on a freeway and take a breath, you're in more danger doing that every day, 5 days a week for 50 years. If you don't want to live near a manufacturing plant, don't buy a house near one. Nothing is completely anti-pollutant and I trust Bullseye to filter their glass making procedures the best they can.
Why are people who are leaving reviews give Bullseye one star when they are stating the glass is wonderful and the company is great? I think people don't understand the star system. Five stars are you are HAPPY, and one star is you are unhappy with the product.
Do not support them.
Not environmentally friendly firm, they leaked need be monitored very closely now!
I am not even going in to their "discriminatory" hiring practices, right Debi?
Those giving a 1 star to this company need to do a little bit of research about what is behind this. This company has worked in every way possible to not pollute the area and to be a good neighbor to those around them. This has become a political issue, not a pollution issue. If I was a betting person, I would say someone has a hidden agenda for some personal gain here. There is never one side to any story. And unfortunately today's press media doesn't report unbiased news/ALL the facts, they report their own agenda. But that's another story . . . .
Keeping the glass community alive. Wonderful glass x x
Everything i needed for my custom reef tank i was able to get. clean cuts and decent pricing.
Bullseye is a company that makes amazing glass and is doing everything right yet somehow the DEQ and the EPA keep changing the rules.
Outstanding customer service, responsiveness and quality. People who make a difference in their community and who genuinely care about other people. Best fusible glass out there! Thank you BE!
The service Bullseye provides is exceptional! I wouldn't be where I am today without Bullseye glass.
Long-term, local ownership bringing income to Portland from all over the world. Working very hard and paying exorbitant amounts of money upgrading facilities to meet sudden new requirements.
Always a consistent product and the staff are so knowledgeable and friendly.
