Development and expansion

Rohrbefestigungen Hammerschmid GmbH has been an important player in the metal industry since 1971. Initially, the company focused on fences, portals, forging work and truck superstructures.

Product expansion and specialization

The continuous expansion of the product range enabled the production of large-scale systems, such as sewage treatment plant components and various steel construction works. In 1980, the product line was expanded to include pipe clamps, which are now sold globally.

Thanks to the qualifications of our employees, individual custom-made products are also possible in addition to the standard range. Our flexibility is reflected in our motto “Order today and install tomorrow!” and is underpinned by certificates such as ISO 9001 and EN 1090.
