Bühler AG (Switzerland) - Press Release: Several long-standing Bühler employees terminated their employment contracts with Bühler in February 2018 and founded the company swisca in September 2018. swisca operates in the market as a competitor of Bühler in certain product segments.

Bühler and swisca are pleased to announce that they have been able to settle their dispute out of court. swisca and Bühler have agreed on how to compensate the use of Bühler's intellectual property and know-how, which enabled the rapid market entry of swisca. The parties have agreed not to disclose the settlement.
