Product quality is one of the most critical things in a product offered. Flat glass is one of the many products produced because of high consumer demand. This requires the company to run the production process well to create products that meet consumer expectations. The purpose of this study was to determine the type and amount of waste in the glass-making production process and analyze the root causes of the glass-making process. The method used in this study is a mixed method, namely quantitative and qualitative approaches, which are directly measured using the Lean Manufacture concept approach. Lean manufacturing is a production activity that focuses on reducing waste in all aspects of the company’s production activities. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the cause of reject is influenced by two factors, namely humans and machines, human factors due to not running the standard operational procedure (SOP) properly, the factors of the machine due to not doing the appropriate machine settings at a particular station.
