Building the Future: Our Locations

Our locations' long term development and value proposition are a core element of our business strategy.

With the founding of TX Group’s first media company in 1893, our journey to build our current brands has seen us expand our operations in top locations across Switzerland.

As a result, TX Group now owns 5 real estate properties used by our companies as office buildings and printing centres centrally located in Zurich, Bern and Lausanne. These real estate locations have played a significant role in our history and corporate identity.

We continuously invest, develop and modernise all of our properties with the future in focus.

TX Group owns 5 different real estate locations comprising 4 office buildings and 3 printing centres

Centrally located in Zurich, our real estate property on the Werdareal along the Stauffacherquai has a history dating back to 1902, when the editorial office and printing plant of the Tages-Anzeiger settled on the site on the Sihl river.

TX Group has grown since then through a series of acquisitions, concentrating the majority of its Zurich media on the Werdareal.

We have 3 office buildings on this location which host working spaces for more than 1'500 people.

TX Group main office building and landmark

Werdstrasse 25/29, Zurich

The office building at Werdstrasse 21 hosts our headquarters and has gained substantial relevance for TX Group and our local community with its rebuilding in 2013.

The new unique building was designed with sustainability and natural beauty as its architectural fundamentals.

With its wooden supporting structure and magnificent glass façade, the building offers high-calibre workplaces to our employees and is a lasting sustainable contribution to the architecture of the city of Zurich.

In addition to creating a bright and welcoming interior ambience, the double façade facing the Sihl acts as a climate buffer as well as a natural ventilation system, enabling meeting rooms and lounges to be opened towards the river. With sustainability at the core of its design, the building relies on a futuristic heating and cooling system using groundwater. The spruce wood used for its construction originated from Switzerland and Austria, helping to avoid the use of grey energy during the construction phase.
