About Us

Based in Zurich, Swiss Controls is the specialized industrial engineering unit of Rigitrade AG. We are an independent engineering powerhouse bridging the gap between heavy industrial technology, complex automation, and daily plant operations

We sell zero proprietary hardware and enforce no vendor lock-ins. Instead, we deliver objective, battle-tested technical expertise to optimize, automate, protect, and scale your global industrial assets

What We Believe In

  • Swiss Precision, Backed by Global Industrial Authority

    Driven by a founding team with over a century of collective leadership inside the world's most demanding industrial environments, we merge elite Swiss engineering governance with master-level command over automation, drive systems, and predictive maintenance. For our clients, this ensures every line of code, electrical document, and system architecture meets flawless Swiss standards.

  • Absolute Responsiveness & Zero Bureaucracy

    In heavy industry, unexpected downtime is catastrophic. Because our founders have decades of hands-on experience managing critical incidents for massive utility grids, metal mills, and petrochemical facilities, we know what is on the line. We eliminate communication barriers to give you immediate, direct access to an executive task force ready for rapid engineering interventions.

  • The Human Asset Above All

    While we design cutting-edge automation, we prioritize the people operating it. Led by certified energy experts and academic advisors, we champion uncompromising safety and systematically train your teams. We do not just hand over a system; we build your staff's capabilities to operate advanced platforms confidently, safely, and profitably.

  • Elite, Unconventional Problem Solving

    Industrial crises rarely follow a textbook. Our core differentiator is a documented history of executing "impossible" mechanical, structural, and electrical recoveries that standard global firms walked away from — including saving a $100 million maritime asset from permanent decommissioning. When standard approaches fail, we engineer creative, highly reliable solutions that keep your operations running smoothly.
