About Gramm Technik GmbH
Gramm Technik GmbH is a company specialized in surface technology, headquartered in Ditzingen-Heimerdingen. Its product range includes high-performance chemical and electroplating contract coatings for series parts – primarily aluminium, partially or fully coated – precious metal technology with functional coatings for connection technology in electronics, microelectronics and microsystem technology, as well as electroforming for dental technology. In addition, the company designs and builds electroplating coating systems based on the patented, closed Gramm Selective Technology (GST), an emission-reduced plating system that can be integrated into production flows. Its customer base includes the automotive, household appliance and construction industries; the GST process is also used for H2-ready coatings of heating components. The group operates sites in Ditzingen-Heimerdingen, Ilmenau, Illingen and the Buchheim development centre (Gramm OIB GmbH) as well as the subsidiary Gramm Technika in Poland with plant engineering, welding and machining services. Quality management is certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.
