History & profile

Comadur is a company of the Swatch Group, the world leader in Swiss Made watchmaking. It was founded on the 1st of January 1984 following a merger between the companies Seitz & Co, Méroz Pierres SA, Sadem SA, Romelli, Rüfenacht, and Watch Stones & Co SA, themselves also the result of a series of mergers. Our story therefore really began in 1880 with the company Méroz Pierres SA, which specialised in manufacturing watchmaking rubies.

Our company name is an acronym of ‘Composants en Matériaux Durs’ (meaning ‘components made of hard materials’). This highlights our active involvement in various associated sectors including synthetic crystals (sapphire, ruby, etc.), ceramics (alumina, zirconia, nitrides, carbides, etc.), and production technologies for rare earth powders (polyrubies, micro-magnets, etc.).

Applications for our products are microtechnology-related, primarily for watchmaking but also for other sectors such as medicine, optics, aerospace, telephony, hydraulics, electronics, consumer goods, and so on.
