As part of the strategic expansion of RUAG Ammotec’s portfolio, Wyssen Defence is another established brand for the Professional Shooter Solutions range. The silencers for military and law enforcement use can now be purchased through RUAG Ammotec’s Defense & Law Enforcement division.
“We always want to offer our customers first-class products that they can rely on 100 percent in critical situations. Thanks to the partnership with Wyssen Defence, we can once again deliver on this promise,” says René Hauser, Senior Director Business Development & Portfolio at RUAG Ammotec. The Swiss manufacturer has a modern production facility in Switzerland and many years of expertise in the field of high-quality silencers. The silencers with the associated muzzle brakes for various applications such as pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles and precision rifles are sold exclusively by Ammotec’s Defense & Law Enforcement business unit and are intended for military and law enforcement use.
Wyssen Defence is a division of the Wyssen Group, which was founded in Reichenbach in 1926. The company originally specialized in the manufacture of ropeways, where it operates globally. In addition, the subsidiary Wyssen Avalanche Control was created to provide the infrastructure for the Defence division, as this part of the company focuses on blasting avalanches. As early as the late 1990s, Jürg Wyssen was able to passionately carry out development and production orders for other renowned Swiss weapons manufacturers, which resulted in the founding of the Wyssen Defense division. This expertise, acquired over more than 25 years, now flows into the company’s own products, such as the high-quality silencers “Made in Switzerland”. “For us, the collaboration with RUAG Ammotec is an important step for the future. We hope to increase the brand awareness of Wyssen Defence in international markets,” says Jürg Wyssen, CEO of Wyssen Defence.
