Imwinkelried Luftung Und Klima Ag

What Imwinkelried Luftung Und Klima Ag does

Imwinkelried Lüftung und Klima AG is a Swiss building technology company founded in 1970 and headquartered in Visp, canton of Valais. It operates as a subsidiary of Burkhalter Gruppe, a diversified Swiss building services conglomerate. The company specializes in ventilation and air conditioning (Lüftung & Klima), with sub-services covering Klimaanlagen (air conditioning systems) and Retrofit for existing buildings. Customer service (Kundendienst) is a core division offering subscription-based maintenance plans for technical ventilation systems, comfort ventilation systems, and split cooling systems, alongside a 24/7 emergency service. Additional service lines include Automation EMR (building automation and energy management), Digital Signage, and Lüftungsreinigung (ventilation cleaning). The firm employs approximately 70 staff plus 5 apprentices.

The company serves customers across the Valais and Bern regions of Switzerland, with named reference projects spanning hospitality (Hotel Gornergrat Kulm, Hotel de Londres), chemicals/pharmaceuticals (Lonza), education (Berufsfachschule Oberwallis), railway infrastructure (EP Interlaken Ost-Brienz), and food service (Asia Take Away Bergstation Gornergrat). Its go-to-market is direct sales-led, with quote-based pricing and customer inquiries handled via website forms and phone. Revenue is generated through a mix of one-time installation projects and recurring subscription/maintenance contracts, with the recurring component growing as a share of total.

Technically, the business is built around conventional mechanical ventilation and climate control engineering, supplemented by standard building automation controls (EMR) and digital signage display technology. A Zehnder Climate Partner agreement (April 2024) gives the company access to a recognized European ventilation product line. Operations are bounded to a Swiss regional footprint, with no global expansion claims, no external funding rounds, and no public listing. In May 2026, Lars Blatter was appointed Managing Director (Geschäftsleiter), having previously served as Deputy Managing Director.
