Kunststoffwerk AG Buchs is a successful manufacturer of plastic measuring tools from Switzerland for over 51 years. Since 2015, not only flding rules and calipers made of plastic have been produced there, but also high-quality thermoplastic composite parts.

A Week of Collaboration and Exchange

The visit was marked by a vibrant exchange of ideas, technical insights, and strategic planning. Both teams came together with a shared vision of pushing the boundaries of surf equipment technology. While the specific details of the projects remain under wraps, we can say that the week was a testament to the power of collaboration in driving forward-thinking solutions.

Building Stronger Relationships

One of the highlights of the week was the opportunity to strengthen our relationship with FCS. The in-person meetings allowed for deeper connections and a better understanding of each other’s work cultures. This face-to-face interaction fostered an environment of trust and mutual respect, which is essential for any successful partnership.

Shared Values and Goals

Both svismold® and FCS share a commitment to quality and innovation. Throughout the week, we explored how our combined efforts can lead to the development of superior products that meet the highest standards of performance and design. Our discussions were not just about the technical aspects but also about our shared values and long-term goals.

Working Together Personally

What made the visit truly special was the human element. From informal lunch and dinner times to more structured brainstorming sessions, the week was filled with moments that highlighted the importance of personal connections in business. The camaraderie and team spirit were palpable, and these interactions undoubtedly laid the groundwork for future collaborations. Here we thank Federico Ponsa and Tara Hall for this incredible week.

Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, we are excited about the possibilities that this strengthened partnership brings. After the successful debut of the H4 Fin, we are looking forward to another fruitful and long-term collaboration. Together, we are poised to create innovative solutions that will set new benchmarks in the industry.

Fakuma 2021

We were there!

From 12-16.10.2021, the Fakuma plastics trade fair in Friedrichshafen invited visitors to take part in expert discussions.

Exciting ideas from lids to innovative plastic products were presented.

You could come and visit us in Hall B4 at the Community Stand 4103. We were very happy to be part of it this year.

Due to the pandemic, the fair was cancelled last year. So of course we were particularly pleased to be able to talk to you in person. Exchanging ideas is more exciting and interesting that way.

We thank you for the many visitors and the great exchange. Many new ideas and projects were discussed and may now take shape.

From the first idea to analyses and tests to the finished product, we accompany, support and develop with you.

Svismold stands for innovation – stronger together. For this purpose, classic injection moulding is combined with composite technology. This results in extremely stable cost- and material-efficient products. As a metal substitute, composite products are comparatively more stable and durable. During production, 100% camera testing is carried out to ensure consistent quality.

The sourcing of the material allows for customisation of strength and flexibility. This gives the process a creative freedom – from the surf fin to the hockey stick to the tine cutter – there are virtually no limits to the shape. The fibres are inserted into the plastic with pinpoint accuracy and reinforce exactly where it is needed. The additional carbon layer provides more stability and makes the end product even more robust.

Thermoplastic composite technology combined with old-fashioned injection moulding technology gives tradition new forms – more stable, more durable and all this in a material- and cost-efficient way.
