About Swisspearl

Tradition and innovation

Built upon strong values

As a Swiss family-owned company, Swisspearl takes a long-term perspective. For decades, we have transformed natural raw materials into fiber cement products for facades, roofs, interiors, and outdoor applications.

The Swisspearl Group is headquartered in Niederurnen, Switzerland, where one of the first fiber cement production facilities was established in 1903. The origins of fiber cement date to 1894 in Vöcklabruck, Austria, where it was developed by Ludwig Hatschek.

Today, Swisspearl continues to advance fiber cement as a durable and versatile material for architecture, supporting applications across a wide range of building systems.

Swisspearl stands for Swiss quality  -  worldwide.
