Machinery Matters
Preciosa’s excellence extends beyond crystal craftsmanship—it includes the high-tech machinery that powers production. By developing and maintaining its equipment in-house, Preciosa leverages the expertise of local engineers, ensuring precision, reliability, and innovation at every step.

The large-scale production of
crystals and fine jewelry stones is
a complex and intricate process,
requiring not only precision but also
advanced technology. At Preciosa, this
challenge extends beyond crafting exquisite
products to include the design,
construction, and maintenance of the
high-tech machinery used in our operations.
To ensure seamless production
and uphold our commitment to quality,
Preciosa develops and maintains much
of its heavy machinery in-house, a decision
that underscores our dedication
to innovation and excellence.
This in-house approach allows Preciosa
to harness the talent and expertise
of local engineers and electricians.
Many of these professionals are graduates
of the Czech Republic’s leading
technical universities and vocational
schools, bringing a wealth of knowledge
and creativity to our operations.

By cultivating a team of skilled specialists,
we ensure that our machinery is
not only tailored to our specific needs
but also maintained to the highest standards.
This strategy reflects Preciosa’s
broader commitment to supporting local
talent and reinforcing the integrity
of every aspect of our production process.
“Developing our machinery inhouse
gives us a unique advantage,”
says Martin Harazin, Director
of the Machinery division at Preciosa.
“It allows us to create solutions specifically
designed for our processes, ensuring
efficiency and reliability. By relying
on the expertise of our local team,
we maintain greater control over our
operations and uphold the high standards
our customers expect.” This philosophy
underscores Preciosa’s holistic
approach to excellence, where every
detail—from the brilliance of the crystals
to the technology behind their creation—
is meticulously crafted to shine.
