About SAW Elektrotechnik
SAW Elektrotechnik GmbH has been active in Freiburg im Breisgau since 1998 and sees itself as a neutral manufacturer and installer guided by the core principles of safety and reliability. Its portfolio of services covers industrial automation and electrical engineering for industrial plants, building automation, building technology and infrastructure, as well as the construction of low-voltage switchgear assemblies, power distribution systems, distribution boards and control systems. In addition, the company offers services in the areas of explosion protection, functional safety with safety circuits, and thermography for switchgear assemblies. Projects are accompanied from requirements analysis through electrical planning to quality control; service and quality control are part of long-term support. Production of the switchgear assemblies takes place in the company's own production workshop at its headquarters in Freiburg. The company has been certified to ISO 9001 since 2016 and additionally to ISO 45001 since 2021 (both by QAS International).
