RITZENHOFF AG

The heart of Ritzenhoff AG has been beating in Sauerland, in the middle of Germany, for 120 years. Surrounded by forests, whose wood was used by the first glassmakers to melt quartz sand into glass as early as the 18th century, is one of the most modern glass production facilities in Europe. „Made in Germany“ is the name of the game at Ritzenhoff.

As a glass manufacturer, Ritzenhoff covers the entire production process from development to delivery. Customers appreciate the first-class product quality, the distinct understanding of the market and the high level of design expertise. Ritzenhoff not only relies on the latest high-tech processes, but also benefits from its roots in traditional craftsmanship and the art of glassmaking. In the past, as today, glassblowers produce the first samples and decorations are applied by hand in the finishing process, making a Ritzenhoff glass something very special.

Proximity to the product and to production – this is the reason for the flexibility and creativity with which Ritzenhoff delivers convincing results even for demanding tasks. The industry needs fast and reliable partners for special tasks, such as the beverage industry, which secures its sales in the catering trade with exclusive branded glasses. The family-owned company Ritzenhoff has established itself as a partner with this simple concept for success and supplies glass in every form and function and offers the entire range of services from design, production and finishing to storage and delivery logistics from a single source.

Ritzenhoff produces up to 50 million glasses a year on four production lines at the company site in Sauerland, conveniently located in the center of Germany. A wide variety of techniques are used in the finishing process. The products are sent all over the world from several storage areas with a capacity of over 43,000 pallet spaces, including a modern logistics center.
