Vision Engineering reinforces UK manufacturing base with Milturn acquisition
Utz Group celebrates 75 years of success
Global market leader for returnable packaging, the Utz Group, is marking its 75th anniversary this year. With a special 75-year logo, the company is celebrating its growth from humble beginnings in Switzerland into a thriving, international business that manufactures over 20 million products a year. "Our 75th anniversary is a great time to indulge in a little nostalgia," commented Russell
Evans, General Manager of Georg Utz Ltd, "and also to look forward to the future. Along with the whole team at our UK facility in Alfreton, Derbyshire, I'm very proud to be a part of such a dynamic and growing company." At this major milestone, the Utz group continues to demonstrate the spirit of innovation
instilled by its founder. Even with the foresight and determination that helped him to found the company, Georg Utz could not have predicted that, 75 years later, some 1500 people would be employed by a company bearing his name. Founded as a toolmaking firm called 'Georg Utz Werkzeug- und Apparatebau' in Zurich in May
1947, the company began to focus on manufacturing a zigzag device for sewing machines that Georg had developed himself. This patented product enabled the fledgling business to flourish, with well-known sewing machine manufacturers, including Singer, among its customers. In 1953 Georg moved the company – now named Georg Utz AG and with 16 employees – to larger premises in Bremgarten.
