Brand origin and history

The company traces its origins to Switzerland, where inventor Karl Zysset transformed a bicycle brake into the world's first garlic press, called "susi", which made it possible to cook with garlic without leaving hands smelling of it. Zyliss was founded in 1951 and, according to its own account, has been designing kitchen equipment ever since. In 2021 the company celebrated 70 years of activity, and its website commemorates 75 years of kitchen innovation.
