Founded in 2002 by owner David A. Dlubak as an outgrowth of Dlubak Glass Company and named after his pet dog, Viceroy, the companys charter is to develop products and markets for Glass and Ceramic materials derived from post consumer recycled glass.

Dlubak Glass Company is a family owned and operated company that has been serving the Glass Industry since 1932. It is the largest US processor and recycler of Television and PC monitor glass, Automotive Plate and Windshield glass, and of Lighting Industry glass. It is also a major recycler of Window Plate and Container glass. The company is comprised of 7 plants located throughout the United States and has facilities in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Texas, Oklahoma, and Arizona.

Viceroy Ceramics beginning started with the exit of the U.S. Cathode Ray Tube market and the glass manufacturing industry which fed into it. With the end of those domestic industries came the need to develop new uses for recyclable CRT glass which were both innovative and profitable to serve as an outlet for the vast quantities of "end of life" post consumer electronic products. Other post consumer glass used for this purpose now includes Container and Plate Glass.

Fast paced technology has spawned devices which have a very short life span and have a higher plastics content than traditional products, so although the company's original focus on developing innovative new ways to use post consumer recycled glass in a variety of building products continues, it has now been joined by research and development to utilized post consumer recycled plastics in the building products arena as well.
