About BERHALTER AG
BERHALTER AG was founded in 1960 in Widnau and is a Swiss manufacturing partner for complex mechanical parts and assemblies. In its business division BERHALTER Tec-Spiration, complex cubic components are manufactured using CNC technology and high-end assemblies are assembled. The components are used in demanding industries such as civil aerospace, defence, machinery and plant engineering, semiconductors, the automotive industry, renewable energies, as well as mobility and transport. In addition to machining, the company relies on automation, robotics and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The second business division, BERHALTER Swiss Die-Cutting, covers the manufacture of flatbed die-cutting machines and die-cutting equipment for food, beverages, pet food and pharma. In 2017 the company received aerospace certification EN 9100 and manufactured its first space parts.
