The Spirit of Duralex: Strength, Passion, and Collective Pride

Solid by nature, indispensable by choice
For nearly a century, Duralex has been crafting everyday objects that have become iconic around the world. Our story is written in blue, white, and red. Founded in the heart of France, in Saint-Mesmin, our factory embodies a unique expertise: the art of producing tempered glass that is strong, functional, and durable—a legacy that spans generations.
Starting in 1945, Duralex revolutionized dining with a simple goal: to offer everyone reliable, attractive, and affordable tableware.
Glassware then becomes a constant companion, from lunch in the cafeteria to dinner with friends, and even at the finest restaurants.
I'm discoveringA French legend
Our iconic models—such as the Picardie, Le Gigogne, and Empilable—have stood the test of time, becoming symbols of French design thanks to their widespread popularity.


A socially responsible brand
Duralex is committed to more than just its products: we are dedicated to local, responsible, and inclusive manufacturing. By becoming a worker-owned cooperative (SCOP), the company places people at the heart of its model. Here, everyone contributes, makes decisions, and moves forward together. Nothing is wasted; everything is transformed and passed on. From materials to values, we are building a fairer and more resilient future.
