About Kirchgässner
Kirchgässner Elektrotechnik GmbH was founded in 1989 in Binau and has developed from a sub-supplier of switchgear and software solutions into a turnkey plant manufacturer. The family-owned company implements complex automation solutions, control technology and fire-fighting technology at three locations, including in an international context. Its range of services includes switchgear manufacturing based on CAD design, automation system construction, structural steel constructions made of steel and flame-treatment technology. In 1992, the company acquired the firm Elgawa in Plauen, which was then converted to switchgear manufacturing, automation system construction, structural steelwork and flame-treatment technology. The products are delivered worldwide, with key customers coming from the automation and fire-fighting technology sectors. The company is ISO-certified.
