Brand story
Typographic 50th-anniversary logo with brand slogan “Excitement on top.”

For over 50 years, we have been celebrating the future every day

Our history began over 50 years ago with a trip to space. From there, we brought an idea for the kitchen with us: In the form of glass-ceramic, which until then protected spaceships from the heat when they entered the Earth’s atmosphere. SCHOTT CERAN® was a revolution. And became a world bestseller that has now been sold more than 200 million times, that has changed life in the kitchen forever – and that has shaped our history. We are now continuing this story. Let us surprise you with the next revolution that we bring to your kitchen.

Ahead of time since 1971

In 1971, we brought space technology into the kitchen in the form of glass-ceramic, which until then protected spaceships from extreme heat when entering the Earth’s atmosphere. SCHOTT CERAN® forever changed the kitchen. This pioneering spirit drives us tirelessly to constantly set trends that enrich everyday life. With innovations that turn kitchens into the center of life.

We think glass is the most fascinating material in the world. Exploiting one’s ability to reinvent it time and again is our goal.
