With more than a century of experience in the lifting equipment industry, Stirnimann AG stands as a solid and strategic partner for Multitel Pagliero on the Swiss market.
Founded in 1915 and based in Olten, Stirnimann AG is a long-established name in the Swiss construction and lifting sector. The company employs around 110 people across the country and offers a full range of services including sales, rental, maintenance, and spare parts supply for tower cranes, mobile cranes, and aerial work platforms.
Since 1992, Stirnimann has been successfully promoting Multitel Pagliero aerial platforms in Switzerland. The collaboration became official in 2019 with the signing of an exclusive dealership agreement, giving Stirnimann full sales rights for Multitel equipment across the country.
“Our goal is to be a leading Swiss trading company offering top-quality products. Multitel perfectly fits this vision,” explains Dominik Borner, Sales Consultant for Aerial Platforms at Stirnimann AG.

Nationwide Coverage and Customer-Centric Services
From its headquarters in Olten, and branches in Vufflens-la-Ville, Bonaduz, and newly opened Schaffhausen, Stirnimann provides comprehensive coverage of the Swiss market. Their structure is designed to offer fast, localized service—whether it’s for equipment consultation, machine delivery, after-sales support, or technical assistance.
“Our team supports customers with tailored advice, ensures smooth and professional handover of the equipment, and offers reliable maintenance and repair services to keep the platforms in optimal condition. In addition, we maintain a well-stocked spare parts inventory to guarantee quick availability and minimize downtime for our clients.”, says Dominik Borner.
Alongside its sales activities, Stirnimann also manages a rental fleet of approximately 500 platforms, including around 25 Multitel units. This strategic fleet allows the company to respond quickly to customer needs and offer hands-on experience with the equipment prior to purchase.
Best-Selling Multitel Models in Switzerland
Thanks to their reliability, ease of use, and compact design, several Multitel models have gained strong traction in the Swiss market. The most popular among Stirnimann’s customers include:

These models, articulated and telescopic and telescopic with jib, mounted in 3.5 ton vehicles, meet a wide range of operational demands—from tight urban spaces to complex industrial and infrastructure jobs—making them ideal for the diverse Swiss terrain.

A Special Delivery at Zurich Airport
One of the most notable recent projects involved the delivery of a Multitel MZ 350 mounted on a 12-ton MAN truck chassis to Zurich Airport.
This was not only the first over-3.5-ton Multitel unit sold in a long time, but it was also custom-built by Multitel to meet specific airport needs. The platform can now be operated at low working heights (around 5–6 meters) without stabilizers, enabling it to work directly on its wheels—a perfect example of Multitel’s flexibility and responsiveness to customer requirements; this is also the result of the corporate thinking of MiM-Made in Multitel.
A Strong and Growing Partnership
Over the years, the cooperation between Stirnimann and Multitel has steadily grown, driven by mutual trust and a shared focus on customer satisfaction. Multitel’s family-owned company combines tradition with innovation, offering high-quality and reliable aerial work platforms that perfectly meet the demands of our customers.
“Working with Multitel means having a dependable partner who understands our needs and supports us in delivering outstanding solutions to our customers,” says Borner.
Looking ahead, Stirnimann sees great potential in expanding its portfolio with the latest Multitel innovations and strengthening its presence in the Swiss market. With a solid foundation already in place, the future of this partnership looks bright.
