Messer can draw on more than half a century of experience in the field of metal constructions for industrial purposes. We offer our customers everything from a single source: from planning and design to production, delivery, assembly and maintenance. The high quality level of our products and services has won over many regular customers literally from the very first minute. Fruitful business relationships lasting 60 years are not uncommon for us. The same loyalty is demonstrated by our employees, many of whom we have trained ourselves. Their high level of commitment is reflected in our proverbial fast, good and friendly round-the-clock service. While we see ourselves as a medium-sized family business with tradition, we also have the necessary innovative potential, especially when it comes to meeting the individual needs of our customers.
