What Igenium (IFPC) does

Igenium (formerly IFPC, rebranded in 2022) is a privately held engineering services company headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland (IFPC GmbH), with a French subsidiary (IGENIUM SAS) in Mulhouse. The firm delivers consulting and turnkey industrial solutions for manufacturing clients across the full project lifecycle — from feasibility studies and engineering design through EPC and EPCM execution, retrofitting, and ongoing maintenance. Its core service lines include Consulting & Engineering Expertise, Turnkey EPC Projects, EPCM Project Ownership, Digitalization & Retrofitting, Project Management, BIM Modeling, Industrial Audit, and Maintenance services. The company serves enterprise clients primarily in food & beverage (Nespresso/Nestlé, Sabarot, Grupo Bimbo, Almarai, Villars, Dominos, Develey, Swissmill), chemicals distribution (Brenntag), equipment manufacturing (Bühler), feed & agriculture (UFA), and select adjacencies including medical robotics (Distalmotion) and aerospace catering.

Underlying technical capabilities span BIM modeling in 3D through 7D dimensions, wireless IoT sensing (including radar level sensors deployed at SEVESO-classified facilities), 3D scanning for renovation projects, and collaborative robotics (cobotics) for Industry 5.0 human-machine interfaces. A proprietary digital platform, FactoryWise, extends the offering into factory data visualization and lifecycle management. The firm bundles traditional EPC project delivery with digitalization services, positioning itself as 'an extension to the client's business' across long-term engagements.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees on a project-based, quote-driven model with multi-year contract cadence. Pricing is non-standardized and tailored to project scope, complexity, and client requirements; no public pricing exists. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales, supported by content marketing (case studies, blog, multilingual website), startup ecosystem engagement (KM0 Mulhouse, Impact Hub Zurich), and selective trade event participation. Geographic reach, while anchored in Switzerland and France, is demonstrated through projects delivered across the USA, Canada, Germany, Turkey, and the Middle East.
