“I knew early on that my future lay with GLASKLAR. After graduating from high school and completing my apprenticeship, I joined the company straight away – we were still a small team back then. My father involved me right from the start and gave me responsibility.

The handover in 2020 – at the beginning of the coronavirus crisis – was challenging. However, our independence, in-house production and high quality standards have always strengthened us and motivated us to drive innovation forward.

It is particularly important to me to work in partnership with our customers. And as a family man, the daily work with my great team makes me particularly proud.”

“In 2000, I was looking for a streak-free, residue-free and refillable eyeglass cleaning spray on a natural basis for my optician’s store – suitable for all materials. With the specially developed atomizer, GLASKLAR was born. It was very important to me to produce everything myself in order to be independent of suppliers.

In the beginning, the whole family helped out, for example filling the bottles for the store. Since 2020, my son Oliver has been running the company in the best family tradition. Autonomy and independence are also part of the GLASKLAR DNA for him.

GLASKLAR is and will remain a part of me – my pioneering spirit lives on, even though I have retired from the operational business”.

GLASKLAR has stood for innovation, quality and sustainability for over 20 years. What began as a simple idea has developed into a pioneering concept in ophthalmic optics. A strong brand product has grown along distinctive milestones – with the aim of rethinking function and customer loyalty.

Products, processes and design have been continuously developed. The combination of in-house production, innovative technology and a clear focus on sustainability makes GLASKLAR a strong partner for specialist retailers with more than 5000 customers – worldwide!
