They are clear: the best projects in the Austrian glass industry. The winners of the Austrian Glastechnik Awards 2025 were announced and celebrated as part of the “Glasscherb’ndanz”.

Sie stehen fest: die besten Projekte der österreichischen Glasbranche. Im Rahmen des "Glasscherb’ndanz" wurden die Gewinner der Austrian Glastechnik Awards 2025 bekanntgegeben und gefeiert. — The winning project of the Austrian Glass Technology Awards 2025 in the glass art category is very impressive and special: The Glas Siller team made an altar, a baptismal font and an ambo made of layered white glass.

The outstanding achievements of Austrian glass craft companies should be shown and honored. That's why the Federal Guild of Roofers, Glaziers and Plumbers brings local glaziers and their special work to the fore every year.
Until June, local companies could submit their most beautiful, most challenging, most complex or most creative projects for the Austrian Glastechnik Awards 2025 (AGTA). The focus is on holistic performance. It is not the size of the company or the size of the project that determines a nomination or win. The AGTA were once again awarded in three categories: outdoor glass construction, indoor glass construction and glass art.
A jury of experts nominated two companies in each category. They were invited to the glaziers' ball, the Glasscherb'ndanz in Vienna, where the winners of the Austrian Glastechnik Awards 2025 were announced and celebrated on September 5th.

These are the winnersAustrian Glass Technology Awards 2025:
