The company is now working on many international markets and has a fixed position on the world market. Many innovations, such as the perfect glueing system CombiMelt or the new, precise and fast edgebander Shark are proof of continuing development.

The machine series Kantomat and Profimatic are replaced by newly designed machine types. The new machine StrongEdge and the series TopEdge are introduced.

2013-2020

The years 2018 / 2019 / 2020 are dominated by big changes in the facility Werk 1. Nearly the whole factory is rebuilt completely and the company invested in new machines as well. It is now possible - with the new CNC Center by ZAYER - to build even bigger machines.
