About Bürsten Walter

Bürsten Walter is a family-run company based in Mindelheim in Bavaria and has been producing brooms, brushes, painting tools and cleaning equipment there since 1948. The standard range currently comprises more than 1,650 brushes, brooms, paintbrushes and cleaning devices. The brooms are made from synthetic bristles, natural fibres such as coconut or arenga fibres as well as animal products such as bristles and horsehair, in combination with wooden and plastic bodies. The programme includes large bucket brooms, street and water brooms, hygiene programmes for professional cleaning as well as products for the food industry, gastronomy, hospitals and agriculture. In addition to the standard range, the company manufactures custom-made products and brushes for floor cleaning machines. Production was modernised in 2020 with a new punching machine; a fully automatic street broom production line has been planned since May 2021.
