Mission Statement
KWZ's corporate culture is characterised by three principles.
Quality
We want to focus our products, advice and service on the customer and further develop their performance. We achieve this through our own expertise and by perceiving the customer's perspective.
Environment and energy
We ensure that all legal obligations are met and are committed to resource consumption. Emissions and waste are reduced as far as possible or ideally avoided.
Occupational safety and health
We strive for products and their handling that do not impair people's health. We pay attention to dosage, ergonomics, error prevention and pleasure in use.

Company history
1973 wurde das Schweizer Traditionsunternehmen Kurt Wehrli Zürich durch Kurt Wehrli gegründet. Breit aufgestellt, verfügte es bereits von Beginn an über eine sehr umfangreiche Produktpalette. Hugo Wehrli, Sohn des Gründers, führte die KWZ AG viele Jahre lang und etablierte das Unternehmen als führendes Reinigungs- und Badewasserbehandlungsmittel-Unternehmen in der Bade- und Eisbranche.
2004 clean&soft AG was founded as a subsidiary of gammaRenax AG to evaluate, procure, distribute and maintain operating resources and consumables. Soon, a further clientele was served with products and services. A core area for third-party customers was industrial hygiene.
Spring 2020 the merger of the two companies clean&soft and KWZ AG into KWZ AG Supply Services and KWZ Industrie AG.
In continuation of its almost 45-year success story, KWZ has focused on the benefits of its loyal clientele with "bronze, silver, gold and platinum" services. At the same time as KWZ's realignment, the product range was significantly expanded and its content revised. This is also reflected in the more intuitive product names, the new labelling and the practice-oriented application containers. A new filling and labelling plant, an analytical-chemical and an application technology laboratory as well as five warehouse locations in all parts of Switzerland guarantee a high level of performance. In addition, the company is committed to further training and standardisation, especially in the bath and ice cream sector.
