InnovationSwarovski encourages its employees to share their innovative ideas: the Slake bracelet was one such idea – one million bracelets, containing 525 million crystals, were sold in less than 18 months.

DesignSwarovski has collaborated with leading couturiers ever since its crystals became highly prized ingredients in the dressmaking ateliers of Paris 120 years ago. Today Swarovski continues to work with leading designers and cutting-edge creative talents, and is the largest global supplier of crystal and crystal components to the fashion industry — watch out for Swarovski lighting up the catwalks of London, Paris, and Milan.

Swarovski is the market leader in precision-cut genuine gemstones and created stones. Since the company first started cutting genuine gemstones in 1965, followed by genuine and created gemstones in the early 1970s, these amazing cuts and colors – ranging from zirconia to genuine sapphire – have fueled the imagination of some of the world’s most talented designers and are used within the fine jewelry, watches, eyewear, and consumer electronics industries.

New ConceptsSwarovski is behind the exciting retail concepts lolaandgrace, a young and contemporary brand offering fresh and accessible fashion jewelry, and CADENZZA, which offers a curated range of pieces from more than 50 of the world’s best established and emerging designers. Stage & ScreenFrom the early days of Hollywood 85 years ago, Swarovski has worked hand in hand with costume and set designers, creating show-stopping jewels, costumes, and sets that capture the spotlight. Now Swarovski has moved into film production with its first feature film, Romeo & Juliet. Swarovski crystals also play a dazzling supporting role at the Oscars. This year, more than 164,000 crystals shimmered brilliantly throughout the Dolby Theater, marking the seventh year that Swarovski crystal has been the key creative ingredient in the set design for Oscars night. AwardsSwarovski remains at the very forefront of design, creativity, and technological innovation: two of Swarovski’s men’s watches, Avant Time D:Light and Crystallium, have won Red Dot Awards for Best Product Design.

Corporate Responsibility The Swarovski Waterschool was set up 15 years ago to teach children about water conservation. Since then Swarovski has set up Waterschools around the globe on some of the world’s greatest rivers – including the Ganges, the Yangtze, the Nile, and the Amazon – which have reached 200,000 children. DiversityWith over 70 percent female employees, supporting women is a significant topic for Swarovski. To underline the company’s dedication to this issue, the Executive Board has officially signed the United Nations’ Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) .

Giving Back to Our Communit ies

Swarovski Waterschool “It is the duty of every ethically sound company to support the environment and social projects.” The founder of the company, Daniel Swarovski, set the precedent by conducting business in accordance with the criteria of sustainability – behavior that has since matured to become a core competency of the company.

Today, the bond between Swarovski and water has deepened further, as can be seen in many of the projects at the company. The biggest and best-known program is the Swarovski Waterschool, which has been a remarkable success story since its introduction at the Hohe Tauern National Park in Austria in 1999. Since then, the Waterschool has expanded to India, China, and Uganda.

The Waterschool’s objective is to promote awareness and understanding of the use of water among children and young adults. They learn how to use water sustainably and, in so doing, how to promote responsible management of this precious resource. The Waterschool program is financed by Swarovski, the company, as well as by the Swarovski Crystal Society (SCS) and its 325,000 members worldwide.

Swarovski MännedorfIn Männedorf we are also involved in local community activities and sponsoring, such as the Männedorf Film Festival, the girls football team, and various charity events.
