About Gebr. Sauer
Gebr. Sauer Produktionsgesellschaft m.b.H., based in Wildeshausen, is an apparatus and machinery construction company specializing in the processing of stainless steel. The company manufactures plants, apparatus, special vessels and plant components to customer drawings. The production focus is on sheet metal working with cutting and forming technology; this is complemented by welding work (MIG-MAG, TIG, plasma, spot and seam welding), in-house machining (turning, milling, surface grinding) and surface finishing by glass bead blasting for passivation. Pickling and electropolishing are carried out via selected suppliers in the region. Customers include, among others, the chemical industry, the paint and coatings industry, water and wastewater management, dust extraction technology, the coffee industry and airfield de-icing. The products are in use worldwide on all five continents; many customers involve the company's know-how already in the planning phase. On the 6,000 m² company site there are 1,740 m² of production space and 250 m² of administration and technology space, partly equipped with NC-controlled machines and CAD workstations.
