About GIB GmbH & Co. KG

GIB GmbH & Co. KG is a general contractor for industrial construction, plant engineering and technical product equipment, headquartered in Gedern with business premises in Schotten (Vogelsberg), Hesse. The company advises, plans, designs and builds systems and machinery from the initial idea through CAD-supported design and cost calculation to commissioning – including process, energy, utility, production and electrical engineering as well as measurement, control and regulation technology. Core industries are the automotive business with in-house manufacturing of complex assemblies and the servicing of around 500 systems in the vulcanization segment (elastomer/plastics, blow molding machines), as well as plant and mechanical engineering, photovoltaics, and energy and utility technology. The portfolio is complemented by control cabinet construction, electrical engineering, automation, the reconditioning of used machinery, photovoltaic projects from planning to commissioning, and the distribution of industrial supplies, plastic and rubber molded parts, and occupational safety equipment. Additional locations are a construction/planning office in Erfurt and a fourth site in Brandenburg.
