Compounding the future

The word "Compounding" has Latin roots. It is derived from the word "componere", which means "place" or "put together", based on the components "com-" (together) and "ponere" (place, put). The origin of the term reflects the basic concept of joining or connecting elements in order to create something new or larger. That is exactly what we work on at BUSS, day-in and day-out in order to ready ourselves and our customers for the future!

With our unique BUSS Co-Kneader technology, we have changed compounding as such. We open up new production possibilities for users in a wide variety of industries. Innovation is one of our driving forces and we are constantly developing our compounding technology further to meet our customers' ever-increasing demands in terms of product quality, energy consumption and digitization.

Excellent services

Yesterday, today, tomorrow

Our history started in Switzerland in 1901 as a steelwork fabricator. A quarter of a century later, BUSS was to become the first company able to process stainless steel in Switzerland. In 1945, with the invention and patenting of the BUSS Co-Kneader, we were the first company to achieve a breakthrough in the continuous processing of pasty and highly viscous materials. We have worked passionately and precisely on the further development of this technology for 80 years. At our test centers, we develop new, pioneering and sustainable compounding solutions, which have enabled a breakthrough and long-term success for a great many customers with their products – over and over again. Both curiosity and enthusiasm drive us repeatedly to peak performance. Our mission is to create the technological prerequisites for sustainable materials that are fit for the future.
