About Breitenbücher GmbH
Breitenbücher GmbH is a family-owned construction company founded in 1880 with its own quarry in Steinsfeld in the district of Ansbach. The construction business carries out work from the cellar to the roof and accompanies projects from design to the finished shell construction, including new construction, conversion and renovation of residential, agricultural and industrial buildings, including planning services such as building applications with structural analysis, fire protection certificates and energy consulting. At the quarry in the Gattenhofen district, all graded aggregates and mixtures made of shell limestone are produced: crushed sand, grits from 2 to 22 mm, crushed stone up to 300 mm edge length, mineral concrete from 0 to 56 mm as well as block stones and boulders for retaining walls and garden design. In addition, the company accepts clean mineral construction rubble, processes it and offers the QUBA-certified secondary building materials back on the market; uncontaminated excavated soil (Z0) is deposited in the quarry. After extraction, the areas are recultivated and renaturalized.
