History

From the heart of Switzerland into the whole world

Temmentec has been delivering high-quality cosmetic products ‘Made in Switzerland’ to satisfied and loyal customers around the world from our Sumiswald location for more than 100 years.

How it all started…

The company’s origins go back to the year 1916, when the Swiss chemist Paul Müller founded Paul Müller AG in Sumiswald. Over the decades, Temmentec has collected a wealth of experience in product development, formulation, manufacturing, and packaging. Tradition and experience are of particular value to customers. A company’s age says something about its performance. There’s no substitute for experience. The professional competence of our employees is a prerequisite for the outstanding quality of our development and production, but it’s grounded in the company’s experience first. ‘Wealth of experience’ isn’t just empty words. Our wealth of experience also makes it possible for Temmentec to provide customers with the best advice appropriate to their needs and offer them high-quality, extremely competent service.
