Alps Automation SA

The product of a merger in 2010 between Arlettaz Électrotechnique (formed 1990) and Krumel & Baud (formed 1981), ALPS Automation SA is an SME operating in the field of Electricity and Automation (E&A). Its brief is to design, develop and implement total solutions, covering all sectors of activity, in Switzerland and worldwide.

The company currently has around fifty employees, based at either its main site in Vouvry, where development and production take place, or its subsidiary site at the Y-Parc technology park in Yverdon-les-Bains. Its commercial strategy involves diversifying both as regards the services it provides (industrial and building automation) and the markets in which it operates (Swiss and international).
