Since 1959, the Bringhen Group has stood for a philosophy deeply rooted in family tradition. Hugo Bringhen, the company’s founder, once said: “There is only one boss: the customer.” With 17 locations across Switzerland and more than 400 employees, the company remains true to its core business – trading in building materials. The values from back then – customer service, family culture and ethical conduct – continue to thrive in every branch. These principles still guide us today and are complemented by our President and CEO, Dr Jean-Pierre Bringhen, who adds: “Our customers have the right to be assured that our products are made from environmentally sound raw materials, produced under ethical working conditions and with a commitment to sustainability.”

Today, the third and fourth generations of the Bringhen family are already leading, deciding and taking responsibility within the company. Cristina Testa serves as Vice President, Nicole Lochmatter Bringhen sits on the Board of Directors, and son-in-law Michael Lochmatter-Bringhen manages operations in Upper Valais as site manager.

Exactly 65 years to the day after the company’s founding, the establishment of Hestia Bringhen Holding AG on 1 March 2024 laid the foundation for a promising future. The various locations now operate under the common name Bringhen, combining their local strengths with a national network – all while maintaining the highest standards in quality and service. At the same time, the Bringhen family holds shares in Paul Maret SA in Le Châble (VS) and Bregy Logistics AG in Aigle.

We are more than just a supplier. We are your trusted partner who notices and values every detail. Simply put: typically Swiss. Discover the diversity and potential of the Bringhen Group in this brochure.

Welcome to the Bringhen Group family – where your building project feels at home.

Best regards from the canton of Valais!
