Germax Interiors

Director Urs Muller offers his unique insight into life at Germax Interiors. “We are a close-knit team that has really grown since our beginnings and achieved great things. We take a very active approach to creating and delivering successful projects for our clients; we operate in a variety of industries, but primarily work for the hospitality and corporate sectors. I think the best thing about what we do is that we take the time before we even start manufacturing to meet our clients and offer them guidance and advice on design, project planning, architecture, that sort of thing. We are often asked to meet directly with designers and architects to provide our input from the construction perspective. It’s great to foster that communication and collaboration for everyone on the project, especially for really special or complex endeavours that deviate from the norm. And once production does start, we have a really solid foundation to go on, which we pair with our years of experience and high level of skill, as well as our top-quality machinery, to produce something really special.” appropriate recycling centres for reuse. The factory roof was outfitted with a state-of-the- art solar system in 2011, which is used to run machinery and office equipment during the day.

Management operates via core values surrounding stability, reliability, integrity, transparency, and teamwork. Mr. Muller elaborates, “We have a great cultural environment that encourages open communication. We support our staff, and they support us in return by helping us delivering a great product every time. We remain open to new ideas, empathetic in times of personal difficulty, and are always happy to lend an ear to any concerns on the factory or office floor. I think we are all so proud of what we do that it filters down to our clients; we have a lot of returning clients that are wonderfully confident in our ability, and that in turn lets us know we are doing something truly worthwhile.” Sustainability is kept actively in mind by senior management at Germax Interiors.
