Latest on the COVID-19 Situation

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, ZEISS has taken comprehensive measures to protect employees and maintain smart business continuity.

In order to continue supporting customers and partners as best as possible, at ZEISS we are doing everything we can to protect our employees’ health and safety as well as maintain production in our plants and ensure our service operations.

In January, ZEISS set up a dedicated task force. We are closely assessing the latest developments together with government agencies and healthcare authorities on an ongoing basis. Decisions are made daily regarding the most sensible measures for ZEISS to take.

Of course, we will continue to be available for our customers as best we can. Some employees in individual areas are currently working remotely but can still be reached at their usual phone numbers and email addresses.

However, should our customers experience any disruptions in service at some of our sites and sales offices, we can also be contacted on these numbers.

All over the world, the company and its employees are joining the fight against the spread and consequences of the coronavirus pandemic. Read more

175 Years of ZEISS: Powering Innovation for the Future

Press Release

ZEISS has always focused on enabling tomorrow's technologies: be it at the optician's lathe in 1900 or while producing the EUV illumination system that comprises 15,000 individual components and weighs in at 1.5 tons. With this move, the ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology (SMT) segment, in collaboration with ASML, achieved a breakthrough in EUV lithography that enabled the duo to make a major technological leap in the history of chip production. The efforts of ZEISS and its international partners in developing EUV lithography were officially recognized when the team was awarded the German Future Prize in 2020 (©ZEISS Archives and ZEISS).

The company's success story began 175 years ago, in a small workshop. On 17 November 1846, young mechanic Carl Zeiss opened his workshop for precision mechanics and optics in Jena, thus laying the foundation for what would become today's global technology player ZEISS.
