What needs to be done to make a relationship last as long as possible? Andreas Trefz might not be a couples therapist, but the Head of Assembly Technology at Brütsch/Rüegger Tools knows exactly which factors are decisive when it comes to business relationships.

"A stable company partnership is always built upon shared values."

The partnership between PB Swiss Tools and Brütsch/Rüegger Tools has always been based on this solid foundation. This year, the two family-owned companies are celebrating 75 years of long-standing cooperation. 

But what are the specific values that have enabled the two companies to work together in perfect unison for three quarters of a century? "Quality, innovation and customer focus are priorities in both companies", explains Trefz. That is why the partnership with PB Swiss Tools has long been far more than "just" a business relationship: It embodies trust, reliability and the shared desire to always develop the best solution for customers.

Stress test successfully passed — Time and again

It is known that the most stable relationships are those that have been put to the test. This also applies in this case, as the last 75 years have been quite turbulent: The challenges range from the 1974 oil crisis, through the European debt crisis, to the pandemic and the current tense market situation. But the innovative tool manufacturer from Wasen and the agile service provider from Urdorf have always been able to weather the storm together. 

The magic formula for this is simple: The manufacturer PB Swiss Tools develops first-class tools that are highly regarded in the market, and the logistics professional Brütsch/Rüegger Tools builds the important bridge to end consumers. But to implement this recipe for success, both partners must trust each other. Or, as Eva Jaisli, President of the Board of Directors at PB Swiss Tools puts it: "We equip professionals with a high-quality tool that is completely reliable and meets customer needs. We share this ambition and motivation with Brütsch/Rüegger Tools and will continue to do so for decades to come."


Since the start of the cooperation in 1949, Brütsch/Rüegger Tools and PB Swiss Tools have together faced the challenges of the times and continuously developed. During these 75 years, they have not only delivered tried and tested products, but also brought forth numerous innovations that have shaped various industries. And they will continue to do this.
