The Swiss Environmental Market at a Glance - OSEC

Traditionally, both the political and personal cultures in Switzerland include a strong sense of responsibility to the environment today and a commitment to preserve it for future generations. Switzerland was one of the first countries to adopt strong environmental laws, which in turn led to the development of environmental technologies much earlier than in other countries.

More recently, Swiss environmental legislation has been developed jointly by government and industry representatives, and this co - operation has led to the creation of progressive laws and policies that
are favourable to the environment, and, at the same time, encourage the conduct of business in new and profitable ways. As a result, companies and research institutes based in Switzerland are leaders in
developing cutting-edge environmental technologies in numerous areas of prevention and remediation, including:

•Water Treatment
• Air Pollution Control
• Instrumentation and Control Systems
•Waste Treatment and Recycling
• Power Generation and Recovery

Due to many of the financial, political and tax opportunities detailed in this article, Swiss companies are extremely competitive and known for their quality, reliability and precision.
