SWAROVSKI OPTIK moved from Wattens to Absam almost three-quarters of a century ago. The local community grew alongside the company, and production now takes place in the heart of a residential area. Space is precious, so we ensure our constructions are very compact and always strive to consider our neighbors. This also applied to our most recent infrastructure project, representing an investment of 27 million euros, which was successfully completed in the fall of 2020.

New production building

More space for administration
A second new building accommodates 60 workspaces in a bright, healthy, and very pleasant atmosphere.
