Crystal Group – Full Team Photo 2025

In a meaningful display of unity and pride, the entire Crystal Group team came together last week for an official group photo session at our headquarters — with our factory as the backdrop, standing tall behind the people who bring it to life.

Department Heads with Cross-Department Staff

This rare moment captured not just faces, but the collective spirit that drives our organization forward. Across several shots — from department leaders to staff and workers — the session reflected the diversity, strength, and togetherness that define Crystal Group.

The group photo symbolizes more than just presence — it’s a reflection of the people, values, and teamwork that have shaped Crystal over the years. From the production floor to corporate offices, every department stood side by side, showcasing the strength of our collaboration and shared purpose.

Operations in Focus: HODs with Production & Technical Team

“This photo marks a proud moment in our journey — a visual reminder that behind every piece of glass we produce is a team that believes in innovation, quality, and growth,” said Frank Tan, Chief Executive Officer of Crystal Group.

As we continue to expand our capabilities and reach new milestones, this captured moment will serve as a timeless tribute to the Crystal Family — the foundation of everything we achieve.

Stay tuned as we display these photos across our offices and Glass Centre — a celebration of the people behind the glass.
