    Integral expands from Schlieren into western Switzerland

    Schlieren-based Integral design-build AG opened a branch office in Lausanne on Tuesday, 2 May. According to a media release, the office in French-speaking Switzerland will operate under the name Integral design-build SA. The head of the new branch is Régis Cornaz, who will set up the branch together with Aurélie Bischoff as assistant project manager. Both were most recently employed at the real estate management company Steiner SA.

    Integral is part of the Halter Group. The construction and real estate group Halter AG has its headquarters at JED in Schlieren. The new working landscape of Halter AG and its sister companies at the move to JED was realised by Integral design-build.

Integral takes over all phases of the development, planning and realisation of working environments, the company says. With the maximum use of digital processes and 3D tools, the new working environments are visualised and a smooth planning and construction process is ensured.

    The company was founded in 2016 as W21 Innenausbau AG by Peter Pfiffner – owner of Pfiffner AG in Altstetten ZH – and Michael Peter. Today, as a sister company of Halter AG, Integral has employees in the areas of architecture, design and execution. According to the company, it manages projects throughout Switzerland.

    Condominiums in Switzerland: An industry that only gains from digitization
    Swiss real estate is feeling the direct effects of the turn to digitization, as the most important players in the industry have accelerated the pace of increasing efficiency every year. Switzerland, with its 1.4 million owners* (including more than 445,000** condominiums), ultimately represents an important market for Immowise.

    Immowise's digital solution is easy to implement and adapts to any type of condominium. By connecting to the most important ERPs used in the industry, the platform is fully integrated into the digitization strategy initiated by the agencies. The lean cost management is also suitable for small structures and self-governing condominium associations.
