What they all have in common is that we combine them with state-of-the-art technologies, expertise and experience.The result is added value for our employees, customers, other SMEs in Switzerland, ourselves and ultimately society as a whole. The centre of our technology is, after all, not just a technologically flawless vehicle fleet, but our activities in service ofsustainability andmobility.

Mechanical workshop
Our workshop revolves around the maxim that regular checks prevent breakdowns and enhance safety. This is where we conduct maintenance, services, computer diagnoses, repairs and motor vehicle inspections for all motorised and non-motorised vehicles. This includes our trucks, delivery vans, passenger vehicles and forklifts as well as all pulled units. Our close collaboration with manufacturers, importers and replacement part suppliers is indispensable in this process.
Metalworking shop
In the metalworking shop, we focus primarily on attachments. We overhaul our trailers and semitrailers, maintain lifting platforms and install tarpaulin covers.
Forklift workshop
In the forklift workshop, we focus exclusively on the various floor conveyors used in transport and warehouse logistics.
Windscreen service
Windscreens are highly exposed in everyday transport. Our windscreen service thus encompasses everything that’s part of a comprehensive service, from partial repair to complete replacement.
Tyre service
Tyres are as indispensable to the vehicle as a spanner is to a mechanic. In our tyre service, we replace or repair old and defective tyres, check the tightening torque of the lug nuts, re-profile tyres, wash the wheels, refurbish the rims and all manner of other tasks related to tyres. As Michael Macht remarked: Without grip, no assistance system is any use.
Paint shop
In our state-of-the-art paint shops, we perform all paintwork while ensuring appropriate protection for our employees. Our paint shop professionals are also well versed in ‘fair value repairs’ such as spot repair.
Body shop
In our first-class body shop, we remove small dents, rebuild complete bodies, perform restorations and handle all accident formalities from A to Z with the insurance company. For an optimal result, our painters and bodywork specialists work closely together.
Preparation, cleaning, polishing
In the service sector, it’s not just the feel that’s important, but also the look. That’s why we regularly wash all vehicles, cleaning the interiors and exteriors and polishing everything to a shine.
Lettering studio
We design foil lettering, print the foils, cut them to size and professionally apply them to the vehicles.
24-hour assistance
With specially trained staff and professional towing and assistance vehicles, we are ready to assist the people and commercial vehicles of the Planzer Group around the clock, in Switzerland or abroad, 365 days a year.
Washing, detailing, filling up
We operate state-of-the-art filling stations and car and truck washing facilities suitable for all vehicle types and accessible to all with the free Planzer badge at convenient locations throughout Switzerland. At our service stations, you can also have your tyre pressure checked and use powerful vacuum cleaners to clean the interior of your vehicle. Regular cleaning is an important part of maintaining the value of your vehicle.
