How does Victorinox work with the environment and sustainability?

As Victorinox is a family-owned company, it is natural for them to be concerned about both the environment and sustainability, as they want future generations to continue their success. Sustainability is therefore incorporated in every detail, from raw materials, through the production process, to packaging and distribution. For example, they use the heat generated during knife production to heat up the Victorinox headquarters, as well as 120 nearby apartments. Additionally, they save all steel scraps, from small pieces to dust particles, which are returned to where the steel is made. 

What is Victorinox's design philosophy?

According to Victorinox, good design is when form, function, and ergonomics create a seamless blend. For Victorinox, it is the details that create the perfect design, and this principle characterizes Victorinox's design philosophy. The result is good and sleek design with a long lifespan. 

The history of Victorinox

Victorinox's history began in 1884 when Karl Elsener started producing cutlery in Ibach-Schwyz, Switzerland. The major breakthrough came in 1891 when he produced soldier knives for the Swiss Army for the first time, which we now know as the iconic red pocket knives. Victorinox is still a family-owned company but is now known worldwide for its highest quality knives and kitchen utensils.
