SYPHON AG was founded in 2008 by Christine Meier, Uwe Zahn and Daniel Glauser, who were brought together by Niklaus Liggenstorfer, with the purpose of creating jobs for people who have left the conventional labor market and reducing construction waste. We offer these people a daily structure and a variety of activities for individual development through the collection, processing and sale of building components. The company cooperates with municipalities and institutions that also take care of this task. Any profit is not distributed, but must be dedicated exclusively back to the company's purpose.
Service
- At our site in Biel-Brügg, the components and equipment are cleaned, repaired and tested for sale. In this process we offer jobs for social and professional integration. Before building renovations or demolitions, we inventory the reusable components so that they can be taken into account in the planning. Our services include the individual process steps in the cycle of reuse of components. On request, we can arrange for craftsmen to install our products for you. We also offer many of our products via the useagain.ch platform. On this nationwide online store you will find components from various Swiss component exchanges.
