Marquis AG Kanalservice

is a family business and leading provider in the fields of sewer cleaning and road sludge disposal in the region of north-western Switzerland. With our crew of around 100, over 35 high-performance vehicles and the latest high-tech equipment, we provide our services for private homeowners, businesses, industry and the public sector. We are one of the largest and most important providers in Switzerland in the field of sewer services (sewer cleaning, manhole emptying, drain unblocking, remote sewer inspection, sewer rehabilitation, leak testing). Fair and personal contact with customers, suppliers and employees is important to us and the credo of our family.

Regular and gentle cleaning by a drain cleaning professional prevents blockages, flooding, unpleasant odors and high follow-up costs. Both our small flushers with suction trailers and our large trucks flush with the necessary high pressure and plenty of water. In addition, each vehicle is equipped with a versatile range of tools and a TV camera. Limescale and deposits don't stand a chance. With regular inspections, even minor damage is detected at an early stage and can be repaired more cheaply. A maintenance plan drawn up by us saves time and money.

Nothing works anymore - rien ne va plus

In the event of a blockage or flooding, our experienced specialists will be on site quickly. Unique to Marquis: we always carry all seals, spare parts and tools for all common standards and types on the vehicle. In addition, the excellent training and further education of our service technicians guarantees that the work is carried out with care.

Mud is thicker than water

Whether in an emergency or for preventive emptying and cleaning, Marquis has various powerful suction vehicles available depending on the local situation and requirements. From suction trailers and suction/emptying trucks to special vehicles for mobile on-site treatment of wet waste. The professional maintenance of separation systems such as grease separators, mineral oil separators, small wastewater treatment plants or paint separators is in expert hands at Marquis.

Rainwater retention basins, roof water collectors, soakaways and pits, ponds, ponds, biotopes, grease traps, septic tanks, drilling muds, etc.

 
So that not everything goes down the drain

Proper disposal of hazardous wastewater and sludge is an important factor in environmental protection. Professional environmental management prevents soil and water pollution under all circumstances. As an efficient waste management company, we advise and relieve private individuals, companies and municipalities in these matters.

Emptying street manholes with the latest suction recycling vehicles

The Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) and the Basel Land Office for Environmental Protection (AUE BL) have drawn up new guidelines for emptying road gullies. The new guidelines state that no contaminated backwash water may be discharged into the manholes when they are emptied. This means that the sludge collectors must be emptied using officially authorized suction recycling vehicles. The official permits must be issued by the respective cantons in which such recycling suction work takes place. As an innovative company, Marquis AG began constructing its own suction recycling vehicle many years ago.
These special vehicles, which have been further developed to meet the requirements of the Swiss market, can  dewater sludge on site, recycle the water and dispose of the volume-reduced sludge in an environmentally friendly manner. We currently operate four MAK (Mobile Separation Clarification and Conditioning) recycling vehicles and one Küpfer recycling vehicle in the service of cantons and municipalities.
