About Glas Rathsack
Glas Rathsack is a family-run glass business in Dormagen (North Rhine-Westphalia) consisting of two business divisions: Glastechnik Rathsack under Werner Rathsack, master glass apparatus builder, produces laboratory glass technology using artisanal glassblowing, such as atomizer nozzles, gassing apparatus, moisture traps, release cells and custom special glass bottles; pipettes are also calibrated. Glasbau Rathsack under Klaus-Dieter Rathsack, who took over the parental glazier business, carries out glass construction services such as mirrors, shower enclosures, all-glass doors, windows, entrance doors, kitchen backsplashes, partitions, canopies, facades as well as lead glazing and repairs. The material used is primarily glass, including amber glass for special bottles. Customers come from laboratory glass technology as well as from construction and interior fit-out. The Rathsack family has been working in glass processing for three generations.
