About Ginzler
Ginzler GmbH is a family-owned company based in Amstetten (Lower Austria) since 1914 and a manufacturer of machines and structures for municipal and industrial applications. The focus is on processing steel, high-quality stainless steel (including V2A, V4A, Duplex) and modern plastics. Product highlights include frameless gate valves such as channel and slide gates as well as backflow prevention flaps, rotating rake screens and screw conveyors, cleaning equipment for settling tanks, digester equipment including gas hoods and pipe heat exchangers, hydraulic steel structures, ladders, handrails as well as piping and vessel construction with spool fabrication. On around 5,000 m² of production space, the company manufactures with laser machines, press brakes, saws, Fronius welding machines and overhead cranes up to 12.5 tonnes. The service portfolio ranges from production-optimized design incl. structural analysis, manufacturing with welding supervision, assembly, service hotline, contract manufacturing and prototype construction. Compact systems are outfitted in containers up to 40 ft, in vehicles and on trailers. Customers include companies from water and wastewater engineering, flood protection, desalination and the battery industry.
