A Partnership in the Heart of the Alps

There are collaborations that expand visibility.

And there are partnerships that deepen identity.

1848 is proud to announce its collaboration with Thyon Swiss Ski School, located in the heart of the 4 Vallées — one of Switzerland’s most respected alpine domains.

This partnership is rooted in shared discipline, shared geography, and a shared understanding of precision.

Where Craft Meets Altitude

Ski instruction in the Swiss Alps is not performance — it is method.

It requires technical mastery, environmental awareness, and consistency under changing conditions. The mountain demands clarity. It rewards preparation. It exposes imbalance immediately.

These principles resonate deeply with our own approach to craft.

The presence of 1848 within the Thyon ski school environment reflects a natural alignment between alpine precision and disciplined design.

Supporting Excellence and Community

The collaboration extends across daily instruction and celebratory moments alike.

OmniWrap is integrated into the life of the school and present during medal ceremonies — milestones that recognise progression, courage, and effort.

These ceremonies represent something enduring: improvement earned through discipline. In this respect, the partnership reflects not branding, but values.

A Swiss Foundation

As a Swiss house, we believe authenticity begins locally.

Partnership with a respected Swiss ski institution reinforces our commitment to origin. Before speaking globally, one must stand credibly at home.

The presence of 1848 within the school’s reception space reflects this philosophy — measured, integrated, and aligned with the surrounding environment.

Shared Standards

Both institutions operate within demanding conditions.

Both understand that:

  • precision is learned
  • confidence is built gradually
  • discipline precedes performance
  • reputation is earned, not claimed

The mountain tolerates no exaggeration. Neither does serious craft.

Looking Forward

This collaboration marks a meaningful chapter for 1848 — one grounded not in expansion, but in alignment.

In the altitude of the 4 Vallées, standards are clear and margins for error are narrow. It is precisely in such environments that partnership carries weight.

We are honoured to stand alongside Thyon Swiss Ski School — with respect for tradition, community, and the discipline that defines both.
