About us

J. Meinlschmidt GmbH, based in Geretsried (Bavaria), has specialised since 1866 in the production of cylinder machines (valves) for brass instruments. The company combines craftsmanship experience from five generations with state-of-the-art computer-aided manufacturing technology. It manufactures Perinet valves and rotary valves, which are used by instrument makers and musicians from instrument making through to orchestras. The use of proven special alloys and carefully selected materials that have proven themselves in everyday use in terms of durability and corrosion resistance is an integral part of the manufacturing philosophy. In addition to production, the company offers repair services. The managing directors are Josef Patermann and Manfred Leppmeier.
