Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

In 1961, Georg Pfender, who was employed as a factory fitter at Rinninger, a local concrete producer, decided to set up his own small mechanical lathe shop - initially from a garage at his home. Exactly 60 years ago, this industrious craftsman from Allgäu, Germany, started turning components for companies in the surrounding area. What started small soon gathered momentum and increasingly more companies began to trust in Pfender’s quality and inventiveness. He bought a plot of land from a farmer and erected a hall there. At this site, he mainly manufactured welded structures, machines and other equipment. At the end of the 60s, the company changed its name to Georg Pfender Maschinenbau.
