Welcome to

Welcome to the year 2024!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

At Swissatest, we have started the new year 2024 with optimism and much enthusiasm. A year in which we can celebrate an anniversary: Ten years ago, the former EMPA Testmaterialien AG became Swissatest Testmaterialien AG. In a letter to our customers and suppliers at the time, we assured them that this was only a name change and that everything else would remain the same. The new name remained, but not much else has stayed the same in this decade: We have optimized our communication, implemented more modern working positions, further expanded our quality standards, extended our range of articles, become even more involved in standardization, launched the Swissatest hygiene label and increased process reliability with targeted investments. We therefore look back on this success story with gratitude and look to the future with equal optimism.

Strengthening core competences

We will continue to invest in our strengths - quality and process reliability. Over the course of the year, we will install a state-of-the-art system for the production of our standard soiling. This will help us to increase efficiency in order to keep the constantly rising production costs low. At the same time, we will sustainably reduce the impact on the environment by producing significantly less waste through optimized processes. We are looking forward to this milestone!

Price development

The global price developments are less encouraging. The ongoing, uncertain geopolitical situation, the war in Ukraine and the new war in the Middle East are leading to rising prices and massive currency fluctuations. Recent intensive negotiations with our suppliers have resulted in us only having to marginally adjust prices for most products in 2024. Despite our efforts, some products will unfortunately not be spared from a major price increase.

The new price lists, valid from January 1, 2024, can be found under the following link:

At the same time, we are pleased to be able to keep prices in euros at a very attractive level for the time being. However, we cannot rule out any adjustments in the course of the year and we would inform you about any changes in good time.

We thank you for your trust and cooperation and look forward to a successful year together in 2024! Stay healthy!
