History
Since 1922, we have been developing innovative solutions for perfect presentation, dispensing and preparing food in gastronomy, the hotel industry and retail sales.
Beer Grill – market leader with 100 years of experience
Since Arthur Beer founded the company in 1922, Beer Grill AG, a medium-sized, independent family business, have been passionately devoted to our customers, to enable them to perfectly present, dispense and prepare food.
In these 100 years, we have continuously expanded our range of products, evolving into a leading manufacturer of innovative systems for presenting and preparing food and front cooking in gastronomy, the hotel industry and retail sales.
Arthur Beer started his business by developing professional grilling appliances unique for their time. In the 1950s, Beer introduced armoured tubular heating elements in their chicken grills; shortly after, the basket grill with paternoster lift was patented. The first versions of the Culinario system were presented, marking the kickoff of a radically new series of internationally successful products for presenting food. The Magma Design cooking plate followed, the Solaris mobile light/heating bridge, and then Vulcano, a world novelty that allows keeping dishes hot or cold on the same presentation surface – and many more innovations.
Over the years, we have also evolved into acknowledged experts for bespoke custom-made solutions, in order to realise customers’ special individual ideas in design and food concepts with our know-how in impeccable Beer quality.
Besides high end technology, optimum quality, high precision and good design – all made in Switzerland – we stand for professional cooperation with our partners, the customers, devoted to the requirements of up to date culinary culture. It is the combination of these qualities that has made us grow into a leading supplier of the industry in Europe.

Swiss Made
As a traditional Swiss family business, we are devoted to best quality, high precision, good design, flexibility and reliability.
Swiss Made – a philosophy, not merely a label
«Swiss Made» stands for best quality, high precision and reliability. It is a label that today is greatly respected around the world. Confidence does not grow from one day to the next, and it can also be lost. Maintaining a label’s unique value and reputation is the responsibility of all enterprises that distinguish themselves with it. As a traditional Swiss family business, we passionately share this responsibility for a hundred years. For us, the promise of «Swiss Made» applies from A to Z – from development to production and logistics and, finally, to our comprehensive service.
Sustainability
All our products and components are made in Switzerland, are long-lasting, use little energy and help to avoid food waste.
Acting with care – shaping the future
Demand-actuated products that last long protect the environment (and your pocketbook). That is why we rely on proven technologies, sturdy construction and high-quality, 100% recyclable materials. Our appliances also use little energy, e.g. due to programmable controls, coordinated heating systems, optimised radiant heating technology, demand-actuated controls and good insulation. And when dishes are presented specifically and individually, they remain at their best for a longer period, and less ends up in the refuse bin.
We not only care for nature, but also for humans and society. We value good working climate, training the up-and-coming, the self-improvement of our personnel, long-term relationships to customers, suppliers and partners. And we whole-heartedly commit ourselves to our production site Switzerland.
