Our Story

Since its founding, Soloc has stood for technology that works and people who think for themselves – a story of steady growth and responsibility.

January 2025

The generational change

After 16 years, Marcel Wüthrich hands over the company to Kilian Isenschmid. New leadership, same values – with the goal of working reliably and with a solution-oriented mindset.

2022

Customized conveyor technology

By constructing customer-specific conveyor systems, including combined pallet and RC roll container transports, Soloc demonstrates its strength in practical, tailored special solutions.

2018

Growth without corporate mentality

Demand increases, the team grows. Yet the culture remains familiar: direct contacts, short paths, no detours.

July 2025

New facilities in Gunzwil

With the move to the new premises in Gunzwil (LU), Soloc Automation expands its space to 400 m² – an important step for further growth, modern workplaces, and optimal customer support.

2023

Complete construction of a storage and retrieval machine

A milestone: Soloc builds an entire storage and retrieval system from scratch – showcasing its expertise in complex automation projects.

2020

When others give up, we keep going

After the bankruptcy of Ansorix, Soloc takes over the spare parts business (Ansorix, Indumont, and Graber conveyor technology), the data, and three employees – becoming the central contact point for spare parts, maintenance, servicing, and repairs for these systems.

2009

One man, one toolbox, one idea

Marcel Wüthrich founds Soloc Automation GmbH – with a clear goal: technology that runs. Period. Piece by piece, a company grows that not only excels in retrofit solutions but also takes on real responsibility.

2014

New home in Menziken

With the purchase of the premises at Friedhofstrasse 3, Soloc gains more space for the workshop, projects, and growth.

Today

Technology that runs. And people who think ahead.

Soloc stands for conveyor and retrofit solutions that work – and for a team you can rely on. With Kilian as Managing Director and owner, the team remains true to what has defined us from the start: responsible makers with integrity.
