Company History

  • The company, which will soon celebrate 30 years of its existence, certainly deserves a word about history and people who not only participated in the establishment of the company, but also went a long way with it.

    1994 - 1998 The beginning

    At the beginning of the story stood two people and their brave business plan. Mr. Rolf Manfred Berchtold, owner of an already successful company based near Bodensee, Germany and a starting young businessman Ing. Michal Kostun from Pilsen, Czech Republic. A small Czech company with a foreign business share is established in the West Bohemian metropolis, which finds its shareof the market as a seller of machines for the production of windows and doors in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The company grows over time, recruits many capable employees, gains more and more experience. In cooperation with the company BERCHTOLD Fensterbaumaschinen GmbH, it wins many smaller and larger orders, and is able to provide manufacturers of windows and doors, especially PVC material, with complete machinery. It can provide quality service and delivery of all spare parts. It offers customers technological advice in optimizing production.
