About Böhm
Böhm GmbH, based in Kirchenlamitz (Bavaria), has been manufacturing plastic pipes and fittings since 1967. The company extrudes cable protection pipes from PVC-U to DIN 16873 and DIN 16875 in three quality grades (100 % virgin material, virgin/recycled blend, 100 % recycled material) as well as pneumatic tube system pipes to DIN 6660 from PVC-U and polycarbonate. The product range includes cable protection bends with socket or adhesive sleeve, large-radius bends, sockets, repair half shells as well as pneumatic tube fittings such as floor bends, switches, T-pieces and expansion joints. Since 1976, Böhm has also produced the BoehmSpacer®, polypropylene spacers for cable protection pipes. Through the Custom Made Service, the company manufactures special pipes, bends with large and special radii as well as in any degree angles and special shapes. Customers include pneumatic tube system providers, the construction industry, wholesalers and electrical installation. Production takes place at the Kirchenlamitz site, among other things with self-generated solar power.
