Reducing our environmental impact
Quality, Sustainability, and Social Responsibility at Swagelok Corporate and Swagelok Switzerland
Responsibility has been one of Swagelok's core values since the company's founding—towards our employees, customers, and the environment. Our products and solutions come with Swagelok's lifetime material and manufacturing warranty, aiming for long-term and sustainable development. In addition to safety and reliability, Swagelok products also contribute to economic efficiency.
The quality of Swagelok products is founded on our standardized, three-tiered Swagelok Quality System (SQS), which covers suppliers, manufacturing facilities, and global service centers. At the product level, we use raw materials with higher-than-standard metal content and employ highly precise manufacturing processes. Our facilities demonstrate transparency and social responsibility, with comprehensive traceability of products down to the raw material batches. All our products are available with EN 10204 3.1 material certificates.Quality at Swagelok

Local Initiatives
- Efficient Transport Arrangements: Our logistics are organized in an eco-friendly manner to minimize emissions.
- Sustainable Print and Promotional Materials: We minimize the use of printed materials and opt for sustainable alternatives, such as Swiss-made pens from recycled mussel shells.
- Support for Regional Suppliers and Social Institutions: Larger packaging orders are assigned to the Quellenhof Foundation, and we reuse our branded Swagelok shipping boxes multiple times.
Swagelok Switzerland supports initiatives like the "World Clean Up Day" and participates in the national Swiss Clean up day, where our team regularly cleans the small stream near our location. Here are some impressions from the latest event on September 13, 2024.
We also support universities and spin-offs with sponsorships and technical know-how for the innovations of the future.
