About the projectSwitzerland

Coaltec is a Swiss company that has supplied mining equipment for over 30 years: shearer drums and cutting heads, conveyor rollers, stations and pulleys, and integrated solutions. Sites in this field are usually strict and dull, but the client wanted a modern, bold and stylish one — to show the character of the company and its owner and stand out from competitors. We built it on WordPress with a modern theme, our own HTML and CSS sections and plenty of motion, in English and German. We refined and enhanced the client's photos, and the client edits the text themselves. Swiss hosting was a must — we got to grips with the client's provider and deployed the site there.
