75 years ago, on April 1, 1943, Metrohm commenced operations with a handful of employees in the Swiss town of Herisau. Heading the team: the two friends Bertold Suhner and Willi Studer. Together with their team, they planned to manufacture measuring devices for high-frequency engineering and telecommunications.
The two friends did not choose an easy moment in history to found their company; the Second World War was raging, and money and materials were scarce. But the employees supported the company, and were eager to join forces and create something meaningful. Perhaps it was this test of stamina during the initial difficult years which laid the foundation stone for the later success of the company.
Bertold Suhner responded to the trust demonstrated by his employees by holding them in exceptionally high esteem: right from the start, he regarded them as more than mere employees. In 1968, when the company celebrated its 25th anniversary, Suhner wrote a text which summarized how he viewed his team: «A single person can never take full credit for making a company successful. It is always teamwork that leads to success.»
Today, we are known the world over for our excellent products and support. The magazine “75 Years Metrohm” explains in great detail how this excellence was formed over decades based on the values of our founder – Berthold Suhner.
