M.W. Saussé & Company, Inc. is an engineering and manufacturing company established in California more than sixty years ago. All of our products are sold under the Vibrex brand name. Our business was founded on the idea of enhancing occupied building spaces by providing vibration isolation for mechanical equipment, which prevents operational vibration of the equipment from being transmitted throughout the building.
Headquartered in one of the most seismically active regions in the world, the Vibrex products have endured numerous earthquakes, offering us unique, real-life experience in the science of seismic restraint and seismic bracing for mechanical equipment. Through the lessons learned from these events, we have developed unparalleled expertise in integrating seismic control systems with vibration isolation for equipment, piping, ductwork, and conduits.
