From steelworks to iconic grinders

Zassenhaus was founded in 1867 in Germany as a manufacturer of small steel tools. In 1887, the company began producing its famous coffee grinders, followed by the first pepper mills in 1904 – products that soon became symbols of precision and reliability. Throughout the 20th century, Zassenhaus expanded its range with wooden products and elegant kitchen utensils, cementing its reputation as a leader in grinder technology.

Today, Zassenhaus is part of the Küchenprofi Group, which has continued to develop the collection with colourful cutting boards, carbon steel knives and kitchen timers – all created with the brand’s trademark focus on form and function.

Perfectly ground every time

What truly sets Zassenhaus apart is its patented adjustable ceramic grinding mechanism. It gives you full control over the grind – from fine to coarse – and is extremely durable and corrosion-resistant. This ensures that the flavours of pepper, salt or coffee are preserved perfectly while the grinder itself lasts for many years.

Timeless design and robust functionality

Zassenhaus seamlessly blends aesthetics and practicality, appealing to both professional chefs and passionate home cooks. Every product is designed to deliver exceptional usability and a genuine sense of quality. The cutting boards and knives are made from durable materials, while the classic grinders feature mechanisms engineered to withstand daily use for decades.

With its wide product range and uncompromising craftsmanship, Zassenhaus truly lives up to its motto: “Quality for connoisseurs.”

Sustainability and long-lasting quality

Zassenhaus products are made to last – both technically and aesthetically. The ceramic grinding mechanism is virtually wear-free, while natural materials like wood and steel are carefully selected for their durability. The company values sustainable production and responsible resource use, making Zassenhaus the perfect choice for those who seek quality with conscience.
