TO News & Innovation Track Record

Our innovation track record - The basis for current and next generation high-speed designs.
Recognized as a world leader in glass science and processing, SCHOTT’s development of specialty glasses for the permanent sealing of glass and metal dates back to the 1930s. The first generation of today‘s high-speed TO PLUS® headers were introduced in 1964. With more than 50 years of research and applied knowledge in the TO field, SCHOTT continues to be a leading force in designing and manufacturing innovative high-speed designs that support next-generation data- and telecom infrastructure.
