Gebr. Huber

What Gebr. Huber does

Gebr. Huber AG is a Swiss family-owned construction company headquartered in Wöschnau, Canton Aargau, founded in 1925 and operating for over 101 years. The firm specializes in demolition (Rückbau und Demontagen), excavation and earthworks (Aushub und Erdbau), special foundation engineering (Spezialtiefbau), hydraulic engineering (Wasserbau), road and pipeline construction (Strassen- und Werkleitungsbau), concrete construction (Betonbau), renovation and custom work, hazardous material remediation (via its subsidiary Huber Asbestsanierung AG), building material recycling (via Huber Baustoffe AG), and construction site logistics (Baulogistik). Its technical capabilities are anchored in heavy, modern equipment — including 50-ton excavators with 24-metre extension arms, LPS-controlled machines for road construction, and mobile crushing plants — and traditional engineered techniques such as nail walls and soldier pile walls.

The company serves two primary customer segments: government and municipal clients (cantons, municipalities, and public transport authorities such as Aargau Verkehr AG requiring infrastructure, demolition, and environmental works) and private developers and property owners (residential and commercial developers needing integrated demolition and site preparation). Revenue is generated through project-based, fee-for-service contracts awarded via direct quote requests (Offertanfrage), competitive public tenders, and referrals — pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company also operates a formal apprenticeship programme (Lernende) and maintains a sustainability profile including 667 photovoltaic modules on its facility roof and 88 child and training allowances for its workforce.

Gebr. Huber AG is a privately held Aktiengesellschaft with no public listing, no external institutional investment, and no disclosed funding history. Family ownership is evidenced by authorized signatories Hans Huber and Hugo Huber. The company operates within a tightly defined regional footprint focused on the Lenzburg-Aarau-Olten corridor spanning Cantons Aargau and Solothurn, with select projects reaching into Canton Bern. Its marketing is rooted in a company website (huber-bau.ch), a dedicated careers portal (huber-bau-lernende.ch), and organic social media presence on LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook.
