WHAT WE DO, WE DO RIGHT
MEISTER is one of the leading Swiss companies for the development and production of ropes, cords and technical textile braids. Nobody can fool us in this area, because we have been concentrating on the production of textile braids and the needs of the corresponding target markets for over 150 years.
OUR UNDERSTANDING OF SUSTAINABILITY
For MEISTER, sustainability encompasses environmental, social and economic aspects. This is why we focus on topics such as energy and resources, social responsibility and the circular economy. Together, they form the foundation of our long-term corporate development.
Ecology and energy
MEISTER continuously focuses on the use of energy and resources in its production processes and infrastructure. Efficient use of energy and resources, as well as the ongoing optimisation of processes, are key priorities. We heat in a CO2-neutral way and cover our electricity demand with power from our own photovoltaic system and certified electricity from local hydropower.
In production and logistics, we place great importance on short transport routes. The resulting emissions are recorded. In addition, we support certified climate protection projects through myclimate.
Social responsibility
MEISTER is a member of amfori BSCI and is committed to continuously improving social standards in production facilities worldwide. In order to emphasize this concern, we select our suppliers very carefully and visit the relevant companies regularly.
With targeted outsourcing and extended workbenches for jobs with special conditions, we are committed to helping people with disabilities who would otherwise have no chance in the regular job market.
Innovation
MEISTER continuously develops its products and services. Recycled materials, renewable raw materials and resource-efficient packaging solutions play an important role in this process.
With OceanYarn®, MEISTER became the first Swiss manufacturer to launch a product line made from recycled ocean-bound plastic.
WE STAND FOR SWISS QUALITY
Product safety and quality have top priority at MEISTER. This is expressed in strict quality management and rigorous quality inspections and material tests. This enables us to stand out decisively from many producers.
Swissmade
The Swiss cross is in our logo for a good reason! Because we rely on Swiss standards to offer high-quality products and services.
Quality checks
We follow a strict quality management and have the possibility to test the materials at any time with our own test laboratory. With our quality tests, we guarantee the best possible product quality.
Knowhow
The textile industry is as much a part of the Emmental as cheese making. We maintain, promote and expand our know-how in the development and manufacture of our products. Thanks to dedicated, long-standing employees, we have potential for innovation.
