Welcome to Our New Website

logo--combined

Finally the time has come to replace our old website, which had become rather antiquated.

Changes

An overview of the most important changes:

Multilingual

For now, our new website will be available in English and German. A French version is in the works and will be available within the next few weeks.

Current Events

Here you will find announcements regarding events and other things in which we are involved and/or interested.

Catalog

We have brought our catalog up-to-date. It is now driven by a database, which means that easy filtering of instruments by feature is possible.

Future Plans

As mentioned, we are currently working on a French version. Aside from that there are quite a few minor improvements planned, in particular a comparison feature and a proper gallery for our catalog.

Since more and more people are using the internet from mobile devices, we will be making some additional optimizations for mobile browsers. The current version works on iPhones and Android devices and provides a pleasant experience in landscape viewing mode. Our efforts will be focused on also providing a pleasant user experience in portrait viewing mode.

Technical Remarks

Some remarks for the technically interested readers regarding the underlying technology driving this website:

Privacy

We use a session cookie for storing language settings, no other persisting information about our users is collected by us.

Browsers

Our website should function properly in all more or less modern browsers (MS Internet Explorer version 9 and newer, Firefox, Chrome/Chromium, Opera, Safari). Since Internet Explorer 8 lacks support for many of the web's niceties, the optical result is not as pretty in that browser, however functionality should not be affected.

Javascript

If you are using a more or less modern browser , Javascript will only be used for a few minor things. Our website is designed to be usable without Javascript for HTML5-compatible browsers (see below) and will continue to be so in the future.

HTML5

This website is written in HTML5. If you have an older browser with incomplete support for HTML5 (e.g. MS Internet Explorer 8 and older), Javascript is required to make this website usable.

Feedback

Should you find errors (be they factual or technical in nature) or simply wish to provide some general feedback, you can contact our webmaster directly.

For general requests you can reach us at info@pigini.ch as before, or via our newly created contact form.

We wish you a pleasant stay.
