2011

After more than twenty years, a new 3-axle skip loader is purchased, so that larger and heavy skip skips can also be transported. The range of skips is expanded with a large number of drive-in skips in sizes from 4 to 8 m3 and large skip skips 7 m3. The workshop and locksmith's shop for in-house and third-party repairs is further expanded. 7 employees maintain and maintain the 'Fahrbabe'. A new sorting excavator 'Fuchs' is purchased for the processing of the wood chips in the AREC. This machine is used to feed the two-stage shredder system for wood and combustible waste.

2012

In order to be able to park all vehicles and equipment, we have been looking for commercial space for a long time. In mid-2012, an additional plot of commercial land was purchased in the former Gurit-Worbla area in Ittigen.

2013

Another 3-axle skip loader with the latest exhaust technology (Euro 6) can be put into operation. So that the removal from the AREC AG sorting plant is even more efficient, a third trailer train is purchased. A new tire loader is purchased at AREC to make the material loading even more efficient to handle.

2014

As of January 1st, 2014, Peter Balsiger will take over the dump truck business in Münsingen. This step allows the catchment area to be expanded further towards the Bernese Oberland. A location in Münsingen helps to continue the prompt service that was set up and practiced by 'Balsigers'. A new sorting excavator was put into operation in the AREC. This machine is equipped with a particle filter.

2015

A 3-axle hookloader with a 2-axle trailer was delivered in the middle of the year. It is used for rapid removal from the AREC sorting plant. A 4-axle roll-off tipper can also be used on the construction site. The new building in the Gurit (step building Ittigen) is well advanced. The building will be ready for occupancy towards the end of the year.

2016

After a short period of suffering, the long-time VR President and owner Ueli Häuselmann died at the age of 77. He was still in the company every day until the treatment and was always at our side with his knowledge and energy. 2017 The increase in the LSVA (performance-based heavy vehicle tax) on 01.01.

2017

forces us to renew the vehicle fleet further. Thanks to our workshop, we were able to equip two 4-axle chassis as demonstration vehicles with a roll-off tipper device and thus put two new Euro 6 vehicles into operation. In order to simplify the disposition, our entire system was 'digitized' in the middle of the year. The orders are now sent to the vehicles on a tablet. Customers receive a printout of the delivery note directly on the construction site, and the contents of the trough can be documented. The invoices can be created directly from the system, which has shortened the delivery time of the invoices enormously. Invoices can also be sent digitally on request.

125 years of the Brienz Rothorn Bahn. On this memorable occasion, Häuselmann AG is giving the BRB a glass container trough. It stands at the top of the Berghaus in front of a wonderful backdrop. Purchase of a new 2-axle skip loader according to the latest Euro 6 emissions standard. An agile vehicle for the narrow construction sites in the city center. Towards the end of the year, land was acquired for a new dump parking space. In the course of the next year this will be converted for use. Our workshop operations are constantly being optimized: in the future we will be able to maintain and maintain our equipment even better, faster and more efficiently. Manufacture of a special trough with automatically opening lids ... a product from our workshop.
