Koh-i-noor Hardtmuth Customer Centre
The new customer centre with more than 400 m² of floor space belongs to the history and present of Koh-i-noor Hardtmuth and traces the development of this family-owned company from its foundation in 1790 until today. The customer centre was built directly on the premises of the Koh-i-noor Hardtmuth production plant in České Budějovice.
