Zyliss AG has developed into a leading Swiss traditional brand for household appliances since it was founded by Karl Zysset at the start of the 1950s. The Zyliss citrus and garlic press, the chopper which was popularized by TV advertisements in 1969, the salad spinner with the tug mechanism and table-top cheese grater all remain legendary to this day. The brand is currently representative of a wide and matching range of high-quality products ranging from peelers, zesters, salad spinners, garlic presses, mashers, turners, and many other kitchen utensils.
