The story began in Switzerland back in 1942. The then 24-year-old Hans Oetiker founded a small workshop in Horgen at Lake Zurich. He was driven by the simple need for a strong and reliable connection. And he never stopped inventing. Ultimately, it led him to patent the world’s first ear clamp in 1951.
