history
In 1523 the first glass master with the name Hans Hein (t) z was mentioned in a document in Thuringia. The company Heinz-Glas was founded in 1622, when his descendant Hans Hein (t) z the Elder founded the glassworks and the town of Piesau (Thuringia). In 1661, under Hans Hein (t) z the Younger, another glassworks and thus the town of Kleintettau in Franconia were built . Production is still carried out at both locations today.
Heinz-Glas is still owned by the Heinz family today. Carl-August Heinz is President of the Heinz Group. The 12th generation of the daughter Carletta has been with the company since December 2013.
