Bamberg lens manufacturer: favorite partner for opticians
Rupp + Hubrach (R+H) has once again established itself as the frontrunner in the optical industry. In the latest survey by the industry service 'markt intern', the Bamberg-based company was named the winner of the “Performance Review Spectacle Lenses 2024” with an outstanding overall score of 1.43. The Bamberg-based company came out on top in a field of 15 manufacturers with well-known competitors such as Rodenstock and Zeiss. R+H thus regained the top position it last held 10 years ago.
For more than 30 years, the performance survey conducted by the renowned industry service 'markt intern' has served as a reliable guide for opticians when selecting their suppliers. Every two years, opticians rate their partners in nine disciplines, including product diversity, innovation, quality, pricing policy and service.
“For 102 years, R+H has stood for the highest quality and excellent service,” says Managing Director Ralf Thiehofe. “It fills us with great pride to have been recognized as the overall winner of the “Leistungsspiegel Brillengläser” for the 11th time. When opticians give us top marks in all areas, it makes us happy and gives us a new motivation boost. Of course, it also makes our customers proud,“ adds Ralf Thiehofe, ”when they can justifiably say that they work closely with the best lens supplier in Germany and purchase their lenses from R+H.” Christian Pflaum, Sales Manager at R+H, adds: “Our heartfelt thanks go to our loyal customers and dedicated employees - they are at the heart of our success and our passion to always deliver the best lenses and constantly fulfill our highest maxim: Only if our customers are doing well, can we do well too.” Gerhard Konrad, Head of Customer Service at R+H and with the company for 48 years, confirms:
“I always knew we were a great team and the top marks for our service behavior confirm this once again.”
