About us
Kari Germann GmbH is a small metalworking craft business based in Adelboden in the Bernese Oberland, with branches in Frutigen and Kandergrund. Its range of services includes metal and steel construction work including on-site assembly, repair and service work on agricultural, construction and forestry machinery, as well as one-off custom fabrications and conversions. Since August 2018, the company has operated a Swift Cut CNC plasma cutting system, used to cut individual parts, large series and complex shapes from CAD drawings or hand sketches. Materials processed include steel, stainless steel and aluminium. A 3D scanner is used for precise on-site measurement during planning; in addition, prototypes, CAD project engineering, and electrical and hydraulic systems are offered. The company operates throughout Switzerland and serves, among others, agriculture, construction, forestry and cable car technology.
