About WISAG AG
WISAG Wissenschaftliche Apparaturen und Industrieanlagen AG is a trading and service company founded in 1930, headquartered in Effretikon in the canton of Zurich. Its portfolio covers products and solutions in the fields of UV, infrared and thermal technology, special valves, and measurement and control technology for process engineering. In the field of quartz glass, the company supplies raw material in various grades as well as machined, coated and cast quartz glass parts, including lenses, prisms, diffusion tubes for the semiconductor industry and laboratory equipment. Under Advanced Materials, WISAG offers carbide parts as well as strip steel in slit and precision strip with thicknesses of 0.05 to 16 mm and widths of 3 to 2000 mm. The range is complemented by packaging technology with induction sealing systems as well as bulk material and storage technology including custom-built systems. The company also supports customers during the development phase of projects and in finding solutions, and has been ISO-certified since 1995.
