Company
Karl Lohoff GmbH & Co. KG is a family-owned company founded in 1961 and based in Neuenkirchen in the Münsterland region, specialising in prototype construction and series production in sheet metal processing. The 17-strong team of trained specialists manufactures components from iron, aluminium, stainless steel and precious metals through cutting, punching, welding as well as supplementary thread-cutting and forming techniques. At the heart of production is a CNC-controlled punch-laser line that combines punching and laser cutting, making the series production of high volumes in particular economical and millimetre-precise. From constructive design consultation through the prototype to the finished series, the company accompanies its customers throughout the entire manufacturing process. What began as a craft tradition – central heating, ventilation and installation technology – has become a specialised sheet metal processor that combines craftsmanship with industrial manufacturing technology.
