Statech Systems Ag

What Statech Systems Ag does

Statech Systems AG is a privately held Swiss company, incorporated in the Canton of St. Gallen and headquartered at Alte Schmerikonerstrasse 3 in Eschenbach SG, that develops, manufactures and distributes electrostatics and ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection products and provides related accredited engineering services. Founded in 1991 by Ruth and Hermann Kolp and under the ownership of managing director Tobias Buob since 2015, the firm operates two departments: an Electrostatics unit that builds and sells ESD control materials (personnel grounding equipment such as wristbands, ESD shoes and clothing; ESD-protected-area furnishings including workbenches, chairs and floor systems; shielding and dissipative packaging; ionizers; measuring instruments; and ESD lacquers, including proprietary product lines such as the STATEST testers, the PGT130.DT personnel-grounding test system, the SRM200 teraohmmeter, and AstraStat floor coatings) and an Engineering + Consultancy department that has been an ISO/IEC 17020 accredited Type C inspection body under SIS 0118 since 2006, most recently reaccredited for the period 17 February 2026 to 16 February 2031 and operating within the international EA, ILAC and IAF accreditation networks.

The company makes money through two streams. The first is direct, transactional product sales via shop.statech.ch, with unit prices typically ranging from around CHF 5 to CHF 1,400 (high-end testers at the upper end, consumables such as ESD polo shirts priced CHF 31.50–45.00), a CHF 70 minimum order value, ex-works Eschenbach pricing, volume discounts on quantity purchases and online payment methods including PayPal, credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and prepayment. The second is quote-based professional services — technical consulting, on-site and in-laboratory ESD measurements, audits (including risk analyses and partial audits), and training programs (basic employee training, seminars with workshops, virtual sessions and refresher courses) — sold directly to enterprise customers. Customers are primarily electronics manufacturers, quality management/compliance officers and ESD coordinators who must satisfy IEC 61340-5-1 or ANSI/ESD S20.20; secondary use cases include clean rooms, explosive-atmosphere protection and healthcare. Distribution is sales-led, combining self-serve e-commerce for products with direct field engagement for services, and the firm has no venture or private-equity backing.
