Egger Pumps is an independent family company headquartered in Cressier (NE), which has been developing high-quality centrifugal pumps and valves for demanding pumping tasks since 1947. Whether in production, in the assembly hall or at the customer's site — employees often work alone. Egger Pumps uses the Uepaa app so that they can work safely at any time.

Challenge: Safety when working alone — in the factory and on the go

In Egger Pumps' pump manufacturing, there are numerous work areas in which employees work alone — for example when testing large pump units or in remote workshop areas.
‍

In addition, fitters and service technicians regularly carry out customer assignments — often in industrial plants, in cellars or on construction sites that are difficult to access, where there is no direct visual contact with the team.
‍

According to SUVA requirements, there must be an effective emergency organization for such solo work. The challenge: to find a solution that both at the plant in Cressier and on the road with the customer works reliably.

Solution: Uepaa app for maximum security

With the Uepaa app Egger Pumps is now optimally positioned. The app automatically recognizes critical situations, triggers an alarm in an emergency and immediately informs the right people — whether at the factory or during an operation. The most important features for Egger pumps:

• Automatic accident detection — triggers an alarm when the employee is no longer able to‍
• Manual alarm — quick help at the push of a button‍
• Comrade help — Peer-to-peer alerting within app users in the area‍
• 24/7 emergency call center — precise location transfer for quick assistance

Conclusion: Safety in every situation

Whether at the factory in Cressier or during demanding customer assignments — with the Uepaa app, Egger Pumps is always ready for emergencies. The company is thus not only implementing SUVA requirements, but also strengthening the trust of its employees in a safe working environment.
