PRESS RELEASE<br />
<strong>Glas</strong> <strong>Trösch</strong> Group<br />
A dynamic Swiss company with a long tradition built on glass<br />
With more than 100 years of experience, <strong>Glas</strong> <strong>Trösch</strong> is the leading company in the<br />
production, processing and finishing of glass in Switzerland and Europe. Despite our<br />
success, we still consider personal contacts with customers as well as solid regional<br />
roots to be very important to how we approach our business.<br />
When the glass specialist Johann Friedrich <strong>Trösch</strong> opened his company in Bützberg<br />
in 1905, no one imagined this small enterprise would one day grow into a major glass<br />
company with an international presence.<br />
Today, <strong>Glas</strong> <strong>Trösch</strong> is run by 4th generation family member Erich <strong>Trösch</strong> – ensuring a<br />
passion for glass along with drive to innovate and pure joy in working with this<br />
fascinating, precious material. <strong>Glas</strong> <strong>Trösch</strong> is the Swiss market leader and ranks<br />
among Europe’s leading manufacturers and processors of plate glass. The company<br />
has about 4800 employees at 63 sites in Switzerland, Germany, France and Eastern<br />
Europe – all working to create glass solutions that contribute to quality of life.<br />
