Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

The Runkel group of companies has its roots in Remscheid, where a construction company was founded in 1898. The opening of a branch in Siegen followed in the 1934. It continued as an independent company in 1954. The enormous housing shortage after the war was also decisive in housing forming the initial focus of business activities. That led to the establishment of the Runkel Freien Wohnumgsunternehmen – today’s Runkel Treubau – which is successful in the project development and developer field. In addition, Runkel Hochbau undertakes turnkey development of projects in residential and commercial construction as general contractor. Due to its expert, reliable development of construction projects, it is a sought-after partner of small and medium-sized companies for turnkey building projects of every kind. Production and delivery of large-format precast concrete elements such as columns, girders, wall elements and demanding individual building components for trade and industry began with the foundation of Betonwerk Dielfen (today Runkel Fertigteilbau) in 1962 in Wilnsdorf-Niederdielfen. Some time ago, the decision was made to invest 4 million euros in a thorough modernisation of the precast plant, including new mixing technology, which was supplied by the Kniele company. A stated goal of the modernisation project was high-quality precast architectural concrete elements.
