A tradition of innovation

As a family business since 1863, Glutz has been helping to shape the development of Solothurn’s economy and culture. Right at the start of the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, the company’s founder, Victor Glutz-Blotzheim, took advantage of the invention of the steam engine to manufacture locks and fittings of the highest quality in a newly built factory in Solothurn. These were met with great international acclaim. His successors are also driven by this pioneering spirit and social entrepreneurship. They likewise recognise the value of offering a range of products from a single source, manufactured by talented, dedicated employees. Back in the 19th century, Glutz created a kind of one-stop shop for door systems and founded a welfare foundation for workers.

Access to the future

A tradition of innovation to make people’s lives easier and safer – that’s what we are committed to. But for Glutz, innovation means much more than simply developing new products and production methods. People – with their ideas and their passion – are what drive our company and our customers forward. That’s why at Glutz, innovative action goes hand in hand with social progress. Glutz draws on the innovative capacity of employees and talented individuals, who are actively encouraged in their development, as well as that of strong partners, to create security and convenience solutions that set new standards in the industry. In doing so, Glutz offers partners and co-creators access to the future, so that together we continue to grow and to give people greater security and freedom.
