About Formraum
Formraum is a sole proprietorship founded in 2012 by Tizian Burgener with a workshop and atelier in Steffisburg near Thun in the canton of Bern. The well-equipped small business handles custom metalworking orders from private and business customers – from bending small parts to manufacturing a balcony including 3D planning. The workshop performs welding work at the welding table, works with steel, stainless steel, brass and copper, and installs its products in new builds and renovations as well as in public and private settings. In addition, Formraum develops and sells its own design-protected products, above all fire objects such as fire bowls and garden design elements made of steel and stainless steel. As a supplement, the company passes on its craft in welding courses and rents out the 200 m² workshop as an event venue.
