CRISTEL, a mission-led company

CRISTEL is a place of transformation.

We take a simple stainless steel disc and transform it into an effective, attractive cooking utensil!

We are very proud of this, but what if we devoted all our energy to transforming our world as well?

At CRISTEL, we all feel a sense of responsibility:

  • For the company where we come together every day, to create products we are proud of.
  • For our society, to ensure there is a place for everyone.
  • For our world, to protect all forms of life giving everyone joy, now and in the future
  • Sorting our waste is just as important as signing a contract.
  • Saving energy and water is as vital as eating.

To allow everyone to share this commitment, we decided to include our purpose and mission in our articles of association, to ensure that the company’s performance on all levels is achieved in line with and faithful to the values we have adopted and to live sustainably together.

At CRISTEL, we firmly believe that the economy should serve mankind and we are delighted to apply and benefit from this principle every day.

Let’s cook up a better world together!
