When the Nazis came to power, Lothar made the difficult decision to leave his home. He eventually moved to the United States with the plan of starting a business similar to what he had known growing up. The year was 1938 and Lothar quickly found that metal was in short supply, as it was all going toward the war effort. With no access to traditional raw materials, Lothar and his wife, Zina, became pioneers in manufacturing housewares from plastic. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThey began with plastic cookie cutters, plastic measuring spoons and plastic funnels. As crazy as it may sound today, this had never been done before. Their innovation sparked demand and we are proud to say that these products are still in our line today! Since our earliest days, we have manufactured in the United States and we have continued to innovate. Hutzler holds hundreds of product patents throughout the world and we are continually thinking of new ways to make your time in the kitchen a bit easier and a lot of fun!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0007\/5228\/7805\/collections\/Hutzler.jpg?v=1696436891","url":"https:\/\/membersdirect.com\/collections\/hutzler.oembed","provider":"MembersDirect®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
