Established in 1872, the German company Schott Zwiesel has been a leading figure in the glass industry for over one hundred years. After many years of research in partnership with the Erlangen university, in 2002 Schott Zwiesel introduced a crystal glass made using a new technique which produces a particularly durable, lead-free crystal: Tritan®. This composition, combined with a new production technique and reinforcement of the areas of glass prone to breaks and cracks, has made it possible to increase the longevity and robustness of the glass and to preserve its shine without compromising its elegance.
