Our philosophy

The relationship at the heart of our process

Ricci & Mottaz deploys its activities based on strong values that guide each of its choices: to accompany its clients in traditional or innovative projects that combine an excellent balance between quality, price and deadline.

There is nothing like excellent relations to care for and maintain the trust of its customers. Ricci & Mottaz therefore attaches great importance to the processing of each request and responds with particular attention. This approach aims to ensure the continued relevance of the products manufactured and to preserve the company's reputation, from the design to the finishing stages.

Our expertise

From tradition to innovation

Ricci & Mottaz supplies its customers with high-quality parts in the shortest possible lead times. We deliver fully finished parts, including processing and pre-assembly. Its subcontracting department also handles operations such as grinding, hardening, electroplating, rolling, chemical deburring, etc. Ricci & Mottaz also places its bar-turning expertise at the customer's disposal for the design of new products or their improvement.

Quality first and foremost

At RICCI & MOTTAZ, quality is our top priority. We understand that precision and reliability are crucial for our clients, which is why we have implemented stringent quality control processes.

Raw material selection: We start by choosing only top-grade materials that meet our strict quality criteria.
In-process inspections: Throughout the bar turning process, our technicians perform regular checks to ensure each part meets the required specifications.
Final inspection: Before shipping, every product undergoes a detailed final inspection. Using high-precision measuring tools, we verify dimensional parameters and visual appearance to ensure full compliance.

We are also committed to continuous improvement. Through regular training and the adoption of the latest technologies, we ensure our products stay at the forefront of the industry.

Our company is certified to ISO 9001.

This allows us to meet our customers' expectations on an ongoing basis through the implementation of a Quality Management System (QMS), which enables us to manage and continuously improve all our processes.

Constantly optimizing the quality of our products and services is a strong motivation for our team.
