What Tiventa does

Tiventa AG is a Swiss family-owned provider of room air hygiene (Raumlufthygiene) services, headquartered in Küttigen, Canton Aargau, with branch offices across the cantons of Bern, Fribourg, Graubünden, Schwyz, and Zurich. Founded in 2007 by Mirjam and Peter Tischhauser, the company specializes in professional cleaning, inspection, and disinfection of ventilation and air conditioning systems, including kitchen exhaust fire protection cleaning and cold-room hygiene. It holds ISO 9001 certification and operates under SWKI hygiene guidelines (VA104-01/02) and VDI 6022 inspection standards, employing a proprietary environmentally compatible cleaning agent developed in-house and using high-resolution camera inspection and accredited laboratory microbiological sampling.

The company serves two primary customer segments: private homeowners with single or multi-family residences, and large enterprises across pharma, healthcare, industry, and administration in Switzerland. Its service portfolio spans core cleaning (Lüftungsreinigung, evaporator/AC cleaning, fire protection cleaning), inspection (Hygieneinspektion, Kamerainspektion), disinfection, and individualized maintenance contracts. It also runs SWKI-certified hygiene training courses (Category A and B) at CHF 450–850 per attendee, delivered at its competence center in Küttigen or on-site. Four fully equipped working groups operate in parallel, enabling service delivery across all of Switzerland.

Commercially, Tiventa runs a direct field-service GTM with no third-party resellers, quoting projects on a scope-specific basis while offering free visual inspection vouchers to drive new private-customer leads. Marketing is concentrated on its own website, an active social footprint (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Xing), industry media coverage, and the annual tiventag customer event. The company is 100% family-controlled, with the founders' children Jasmin and Rafael Tischhauser assuming Co-CEO roles in October 2025 as part of a planned generational succession. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Zehnder Group: Swiss-listed manufacturer of ventilation and indoor climate solutions (heat recovery ventilation, radiant heating/cooling). Like Belimo, Zehnder is a broad incumbent in room air hygiene that could expand into recurring cleaning/maintenance services and compete with Tiventa on enterprise accounts.
• Camfil AB: Global air filtration manufacturer with strong presence in DACH/Switzerland. Camfil overlaps with Tiventa in the indoor air quality category and increasingly offers filter change and air-handling service contracts that compete for the same facility maintenance budgets.
• ISS A/S: Global facility services company with technical building services and cleaning divisions operating in Switzerland. ISS bundles ventilation/HVAC cleaning into multi-service contracts, directly competing with Tiventa for enterprise customers seeking a single facility services vendor.
• Piepenbrock Unternehmensgruppe: German family-owned facility services group with cleaning, technical building services, and maintenance divisions. Piepenbrock's hygiene and technical cleaning arms serve similar customer types (pharma, healthcare, industry) under comparable German/DACH standards.
• Belimo Automation AG: Swiss-listed global leader in HVAC damper actuators, control valves, and sensors. While primarily an equipment OEM, Belimo sits in the same Swiss HVAC value chain and could plausibly bundle service offerings or compete for the same enterprise customers looking for end-to-end indoor air quality solutions.
• Wisag Industrie Service Holding SE: One of Germany's largest facility services and technical building services providers. Through Swiss subsidiaries, Wisag competes in ventilation hygiene and technical cleaning, offering similar compliance-driven services to enterprise and industrial clients.

Regional players

• Hagleitner Hygiene International GmbH: Austrian family-owned hygiene company specializing in dispensers, cleaning agents, and disinfection services across DACH. Comparable in family-business ethos and product-plus-service model, though focused primarily on washroom hygiene rather than ventilation duct cleaning.

Emerging players

• Contravent GmbH: German independent ventilation hygiene service provider offering cleaning, inspection, and disinfection of RLT systems. Closest like-for-like service peer to Tiventa in the DACH region, operating under comparable VDI 6022 standards.
• Grewe & Pfau GmbH: German specialized ventilation cleaning and inspection company serving DACH industrial clients (Lüftungsreinigung, RLT-Hygiene). Most directly comparable to Tiventa in service scope, though smaller and currently without a Swiss branch.

Others

• SVLW (Schweizerischer Verband der Lüftungs- und Wärmetechniker) member companies: Swiss industry association for ventilation engineers; Tiventa is a listed partner. While not a direct competitor, member firms (independent HVAC/ventilation engineering offices) are the closest comparable operators that also work to SWKI standards and could compete for the same contracts.
