About Stuwatec
Stuwatec Wasserbau GmbH from Kesswil on Lake Constance is a Swiss specialist company for underwater work, sampling, hydraulic engineering and floating jetties. In the field of underwater work, the company carries out inspections using underwater video and photos, repairs such as welding and cutting, installations, salvage operations and blasting. Its range of services also includes soil and water samples, core freezing, consulting, echo sounding and underwater ultrasonic thickness measurements. In hydraulic engineering, Stuwatec implements bank reinforcements, bank protection, renaturalisation, pile and sheet piling driving, jetty systems, drilling and dredging. As the Swiss representative of JETFLOAT International GmbH (founded in 1971), the company offers modular floating elements made of high-quality HDPE (LUPOLEN 5261 Z) — from requirement analysis and concept development through to turnkey implementation. The underwater work is carried out using a range of hydraulic tools, including a percussion drill, concrete chain saw, stone milling machine and core drill.
