• Holophane Glass Co. (USA): manufacturing / sales, and Holophane Limited (UK)

• The year 1920 sees the birth of “Holophane SA” in France. The English company (Holophane Limited) joins forces with a French industrialist to create a production site and installs glassware in Les Andelys. Holophane SA is born.
