In 1984, Franz Kistler had a vision: building dream homes with natural stone products. Our current headquarters and showroom location in Reichenburg has developed steadily since then, and production was continuously expanded until 2005. What once began as a two-man operation has developed into the largest Swiss production facility with over 70 employees in the workshop and on the assembly line.
In 2006, we expanded our capacities by opening our production facility in Witnica, Poland. It produces between 80 and 100 worktops a day in three shifts for the Swiss market. In Switzerland, these panels are measured, planned and installed by 75 employees.
In 2022, Franz Kistler sold his life’s work to private Swiss investors in order to secure the continued existence of the company and its jobs.
Today, Steinform Kistler AG is just as solid and reliable as the natural stone that we process. With an extensive product range of granite, Quartzstone® 2.0 and fine ceramics, we are a leading supplier of kitchen worktops in Europe. Our intuition for the diverse application possibilities of natural stone enables us to implement your projects precisely and efficiently. This is how we manage to inspire our customers time and again and keep Franz Kistler’s vision alive.
