SCHOTT
Herstellung von Glas, Keramik und Beton
Pioneering the impossible since 1884.
Pioneers living in exciting times
True pioneers lead with passion and ignite a fire within others, pushing ideas forward until they succeed. The inventor of specialty glass, Otto Schott, was one of them, and his pioneering spirit drives us to this day. We turn ideas never thought possible into reality – thanks to our experience of more than 130 years and our love of specialty glass.
Discover what drives the SCHOTT #glassloversTaking responsibility for our planet
Social responsibility has always been an integral part of our corporate strategy. The dividends we generate support a wide range of projects in scientific research and social programs around the world. Today, taking responsibility has taken on new meanings. We know we have to do our part to stop climate change and have set ourselves an ambitious goal. Our pledge: Being carbon neutral by 2030.
Realizing the potential of diversity
We value the diversity of views, like the diversity of specialty glass. They both unlock great opportunities. Our founders were trailblazers for the power of teamwork, and the discoveries of Otto Schott, Carl Zeiss and Ernst Abbe advanced many areas of science. Today’s #glasslovers honor their achievements by joining forces across different disciplines, nations, cultures and gender.
