Category: hurricane glasses
Schott Zwiesel, the renowned German producer of "The Best Crystal Glassware," has been a leader in innovation, style, and technology for more than a century. The company has many firsts to its credit, including the pioneering development of the first fully automated production of glass-blown stemware.
In the 1990s, as the glass industry grappled with environmental concerns regarding lead and other heavy metals in crystal, Schott Zwiesel was the first glassmaker to introduce lead-free crystal glass of exceptional quality and brilliance. This achievement marked a significant milestone in the company's history.
In 2001, Schott Zwiesel created Tritan® Crystal, a groundbreaking material developed by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide, earning it the title of "The World's Best Crystal Glass." Tritan® Crystal is 100% dishwasher safe, ensuring it will not etch, cloud, or discolor throughout the life of the glass. Moreover, Tritan® is remarkably resistant to the common damages of daily use, such as breakage, chipping, and scratching, and is also thermal shock resistant.
Tritan® Crystal is renowned for its unparalleled clarity and brilliance, outperforming other crystal materials in its ability to conduct, refract, and transfer light. As an added measure of durability, Schott Zwiesel has engineered Tritan® to temper the rim, bowl, stem joint, and foot edge, providing enhanced strength against chipping and breakage.
The company's commitment to quality extends to the precise design and manufacturing of its crystal items. All Schott Zwiesel stemware and beverage ware are cut using patented laser technology, ensuring a smooth, thin, and elegant edge. Each detail of size, weight, and balance is meticulously studied by culinary experts and manufacturing engineers to deliver a glass that enhances the enjoyment and potential of wine or spirits.
The BAR SPECIAL series, a testament to Schott Zwiesel's dedication to innovation, leaves nothing to be desired. Perfect for cocktails, aperitifs, and digestifs, these beautiful and functional glasses are true all-rounders, reflecting the latest bar trends and catering to the requirements of private connoisseurs. The collection includes the perfect shapes and sizes for a wide range of special drinks, ensuring a remarkable experience for every occasion.
Schott Zwiesel's commitment to quality, innovation, and design is evident in every aspect of its crystal products. From the industry-leading Tritan® Crystal to the versatile BAR SPECIAL series, the company continues to set the standard for exceptional glassware, delivering unparalleled performance, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
