Our story

Three generations.
One story.

What our grandfather founded in Germany and our father continued in Switzerland is being carried on today by the third generation – with pride in our roots and a clear view of what's ahead.

I.
The beginning.

Grandfather Fritz founds the painting business in Germany. Out of pride in the craft – and the belief that clean work demands head, hand and heart. A standard that still shapes us today.

II.
Across the border.

Our father brings the craft to Switzerland and builds up the business in Basel. German craftsmanship meets Swiss reliability – a name the region has come to trust.

III.
The next generation.

In early 2026, the third generation takes over the leadership – with the clear mission to carry the family legacy forward and prepare it for what's next.

Today
Rebranding & modernisation.

A fresh brand, modernised processes, a clear focus on Basel and the region. Proven craftsmanship meets contemporary standards – in execution and in communication.

Vision
The way forward.
