Büchi AG Uster was founded 1946. Three years later, the young enterprise highlighted its determination to conquer the market with new ideas and concepts. The Büchi brothers first developed the «büchiflex» ball-socket joint: a flexible, changeable glass piping connection. This unique combination of highly corrosion resistant glass and fully functional connection elements immediately met with a resounding response, in the chemical industry. With the stirred laboratory autoclaves (pressure reactors), also manufactured in corrosion resistant materials, a second product line was set up.

Büchiglasuster is a leading world-wide supplier of Pressure Reactors, Pilot Reactors and accessories, Pilot Plants and Process Equipment in corrosion resistant materials for R&D and production in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry.
