I'm currently looking for glass food storage containers (freezer safe, oven safe as a bonus).

My search so far has only turned up Pyrex Europe, which is an American company but produces exclusively in France.

Other brands I've checked:

• Orthex: imports their glassware from abroad, and does not produce it in Sweden/Finland (confirmed via email, still waiting on the actual country) Edit: confirmed made in China by their support.
• Glasslock: offices and warehouses in Germany, production in South Korea
• Luminarc: French company, produced in UAE
• Duralex: French company, made in France. Does not deliver outside of France (EU website is "under construction"). I reached out about the broken website.
• IKEA 365: Swedish company, glass made in different countries (confirmed France, Czech Republic). Lids made in China.
• Weck: German company, probably made in Germany. Not ideal shapes, and while theoretically freezer proof, not meant for that.
• Frigoverre by Bormilio Luigi: comment said produced in Europe and China, their own website does not show a production site outside of Europe. No direct sales from their website, no local retailer for me.
• vilde.pl seems to produce in Poland, but not what I am looking for
• Kuhn Rikon produces in Switzerland, but no delivery for me
• Status Innovation seems to produce in Slovenia

So I'd appreciate any tips and I will update the list with what I find.

Edit: Seems like Duralex fits the criteria but does not deliver outside of France. Please keep additional suggestions coming!

Current top list:

• Duralex if the EU website would work
• Frigoverre if there would be direct sales or a local retailer
• Kuhn Rikon if they would deliver to me
• Status Innovation seems to produce in Slovenia
• IKEA 365 despite the Chinese lid
• Weck, because the shape is just not practical for me and they do go beyond 500 ml.
• Pyrex Europe, made in France, but US company.

I'm currently looking to replace my in-ears (which are slowly dying) and I have settled on the open-ear form factor. Unfortunately open-ears are not very common, so I've had trouble finding many European options. I'd settle for a European company, because produced in Europe is even more difficult to find.

What I found so far:

• Nothing Open Ear (UK, produced in China)
• ~~Suunto Aqua/Wing/Sonic (Finland, probably produced in China~~ apparently completely Chinese now
• Teufel Airy Open TWS (Germany, probably produced in China)
• Beyerdynamic Veerio 200 (Germany, 85% of all Beyerdynamic products produced in Germany)

Please do not confuse open-back (full-size over-ear) and open-ear (small form factor).

European brands I have checked which do not have open-ears:

• Steelseries
• Bang & Olufsen
• Austrian Audio
• Sennheiser
• Meze
• Fairphone
• Valco
• Fresh 'n Rebel
• Jabra

Brands with open-ears but not European:

• Shokz
• Bose
• JBL
• Suunto (used to be Finnish, now 100% Chinese)

Feuerwear makes a series of bags and backpacks out of old firehose. I got one of their laptop bags since last year and I absolutely love it! They also offer a repair service and give a 3-year warranty on their products.

As far as I can tell from their website, some steps of the production are done in Germany and some (mostly sewing) is done in Serbia.

Referreral code warning
I got a code that gives a 10€ reduction for new customers (and gives me the same if it's used). I'm not sure if the code can be used repeatedly, so no guarantee that it works.

As the title said, I'm looking for a stainless steel french press. So far the only producer that actually makes them in Europe seems to be Stelton (Denmark). Bodum looked good, but they do have a factory in China and don't clearly disclose in the webshop where the specific product is made. Additionally Amazon lists the Bodum Columbia as "Made in China". Scanpan is another European brand, but the TOGO line is made in China unfortunately.

So I'd be happy to get any pointers for brands to look at.

Edit: The options so far are

• Stelton EM77, stainless steel cylinder, 80€, made in Denmark
• Bodum Douro, stainless steel cylinder, 170€, made in Portugal

All other options (WMF, other Bodum models, Bialetti, Paderno) seem to be produced in China or the US.

I didn't expect it to be this difficult to find viable options.
