What is tritan® crystal?

Tritan® crystal glass is a unique, internationally patented crystal glass invented by Schott Zwiesel. It is entirely lead and barium-free, using titanium and zirconium oxides instead. It has a high-temperature production process that includes tempering. Tritan’s composition is exclusive to Schott Zwiesel and delivers superior crystal glass in aesthetics, design and durability. Tritan® crystal glass is the only crystal glass with an eco-profile. It is certified to ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004 (related to the development, production, decoration and distribution of machine-made crystal glass) and ISO 14040:2009and ISO 14044:2006, which certify both the factory, method of production, and product have an eco-profile. 


What are the benefits of using tritan® crystal glassware?

Schott Zwiesel Tritan CrystalContinuously revised and improved with the TÜV Rheinland (technical inspection agency of the Rhineland), the internationally patented Tritan® Crystal Glass is the glass with an ecological profile. Schott Zwiesel is concerned about protecting the natural environment and sustainability and therefore consumes as few resources as possible by ensuring optimum energy resources. Schott Zwiesel’s certified environmental management system ensures this is adhered to and tracked using sustainable ecological balance sheets. Furthermore, Schott Zwiesel continually reduces its carbon footprint through re-evaluation and restructuring. For example, in 2012, they completed a project to convert all furnaces to oxy-fuel systems to cut gas consumption and omissions by c30%.

From a design standpoint, tritan® crystal glasses are both durable and shatter-resistant. This durability comes from the unique composition of Tritan crystal and is further enhanced by tempering at the rim, where the bowl joins the stem, and the stem joins the foot. In addition, the Tritan protect system is employed; the entire stem is chemically tempered to double its strength. This general durability, coupled with excellent design, explains why Schott Zwiesel glassware is so popular.

Schott ZwieselThe glassware is resistant to chipping, breaking and corrosion. In addition, it has the highest dishwasher resistance ratings. Schott Zwiesel has conducted numerous tests in-house and independently to ensure the glasses are dishwasher resistant. As a result, even after an astonishing 3,000 domestic dishwasher cycles, Tritan crystal remains unmarked with no cloudiness, scratching or loss of brilliance.

Tritan® crystal glasses are both practical and functional. The crystal composition is the most complex, brilliant crystal glass globally, with a diamond-like brilliance.

These qualities are essential for catering professionals: wine-makers, wine experts, sommeliers, restaurateurs, hoteliers and gourmets.
