About Wegmüller & Fils
E. Wegmüller & Fils S.A. is a Swiss family business founded in 1964, based in Yverdon-les-Bains and specialised in electroplated surface treatment. Its service portfolio covers zinc plating, nickel plating, chrome plating, copper plating, tin plating, brass plating and silver plating as well as passivation of stainless steel, complemented by mechanical surface processes such as tumble finishing (mass finishing) and polishing. Production takes place in immersion baths; for parts exceeding the bath dimensions, feasibility is assessed upon individual request. The company serves industrial customers from the mechanical engineering and metal processing sectors in Switzerland and works in French.
