Notre histoire

111 ans d'inventivité, de travail de pionnier et de succès

Albert Züllig est l’inventeur de dispositifs qui ont permis pour la première fois en 1913 le remplissage entièrement automatique des réservoirs des systèmes d’approvisionnement en eau en fonction du niveau. Dans son garage, il a commencé à développer, en tant que constructeur indépendant, des commandes de pompes ainsi que les arrêts de protection et les détecteurs de niveau d’eau à distance nécessaires. Il a porté ces modèles à la production et a ainsi attiré l’attention du monde entier.

De l’atelier à l’entreprise, la société Züllig s’est développée après que les assurances incendie cantonales ont fait dépendre le versement de leurs subventions d’installations techniques de commande supplémentaires. Albert Züllig a développé des systèmes d’ouverture à distance alimentés par des batteries et est resté un « pröbler » et un constructeur, conformément à sa nature. Rétrospectivement, on peut dire que lors de la création de l’entreprise Züllig, une équipe d’originaux aux méthodes de travail originales, mais d’une grande créativité, était à l’œuvre.

En 1955, l’entreprise Züllig a été transmise à la deuxième génération de la famille, le Dr Hans Züllig ayant fortement marqué le développement durant cette période et employant parfois jusqu’à 200 personnes. Depuis 2024, Züllig fait partie du groupe STEBATEC avec environ 40 collaborateurs.
