Full description
After decades of development, the company was privatized in 1993, marking a new phase in its history and leading to the establishment of the modern Schönheider Guss GmbH.
Since then, it has grown into a medium-sized enterprise specializing in iron castings for industries such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and drive technology.
Today, the company is using two hot-blast cupola furnaces and continues to build on its expertise in high-quality casting solutions.
