Swiss Airport Suppliers s Work Place and Think Tank
Pascal Berberat Chairman of Swiss Airport Suppliers Foreword The airport is your country s business card. It gives travellers their first impression of the country on arrival and their last impression on departure. Airlines also expect their flights to operate smoothly and on time. On top of this, your country entrusts its airports with a great deal of responsibility for its security, because airports are the point of entry for large quantities of imported goods and a huge number of visitors entering the country on a daily basis. Accordingly, airport equipment features an extensive range of technology and material. This includes the buildings with their different security requirements, their state-of-the-art, ergonomically designed furniture, vehicles for transporting passengers and baggage and for runway maintenance, as well as an extensive range of technical equipment such as lights, beacons, queue management systems, baggage and freight logistics and much more. Swiss companies operate on a global scale and their innovative and outstanding products play an important role in equipping airports across the world. Competent, customeroriented solutions, superior engineering and the Swiss Made label guarantee you, the customer, a high level of quality, reliability and service. s small size ensures that you will find a number of partners within easy reach. This brochure provides a practical overview of a number of companies to facilitate your search for a reliable partner. Should you require references, please contact the companies directly.
