Sulzer Ltd. [ˈzʊlt͡sɐ] is a Swiss industrial engineering and manufacturing firm, founded by Salomon Sulzer-Bernet in 1775 and established as Sulzer Brothers Ltd. (Gebrüder Sulzer) in 1834 in Winterthur, Switzerland. Today it is a publicly traded company with some 180 manufacturing facilities and service centers around the world. The company's shares are listed on the Swiss Stock Exchange.

Sulzer specializes in technologies for fluids of all types. The company's inventions includes the first precision valve steam engine (1876), the Sulzer-Diesel motor (1898) and artificial hip joints (1965). Sulzer Brothers helped develop shuttleless weaving and their core business in the 1970s and 1980s was loom manufacturing. Rudolf Diesel worked for Sulzer in 1879 [2] and in 1893 Sulzer bought certain rights to diesel engines. Sulzer built their first diesel engine in 1898.[citation needed]
