BEDEK

What BEDEK does

BEDEK GmbH & Co. KG is a privately held, owner-managed German Mittelstand manufacturer founded in 1973 and headquartered in Dinkelsbühl, Bavaria. The company delivers full-service product development and manufacturing of custom electromechanical assemblies, plastic enclosures, CE-certified devices, and medical products, operating from a 2,500+ m² facility with in-house tool building, plastic injection molding (including 2-component ABS/TPE molding), CNC machining with up to 0.05 mm repeat accuracy, cable assembly, laser marking, and ESD-protected / cleanroom production lines. Its core product portfolio spans axial / radial / flat fans (over 100,000 units sold annually across 3,000+ models), more than 700 standard plastic enclosures with custom machining options, custom membrane keyboards for medical and CE devices, and — under exclusive Trafox distribution — transformers, chokes, filters, and insulation monitors for E-Mobility DC charging infrastructure. BEDEK serves medical technology, industrial manufacturing, automotive, aerospace (named end-users include Airbus and Jaguar Land Rover), energy / building technology, and E-Mobility customers.

The company's revenue model blends professional services (custom device and product development from concept to serial production, with quoted 39-day concept-to-market cycles), hardware sales of its own fans and enclosures, and distribution margin from exclusive Trafox representation in Germany and Austria. Pricing is quote-based B2B with 30-day payment terms; standard and developer-grade products are also sold through the MeinTechnikshop.com e-commerce storefront (Shopware 5 platform, partnered with IntoCommerce). Go-to-market is direct-sales-led, with dedicated sales representatives for enclosure/product development (Christopher Haltmayer) and fan/blower technology (Thomas Piltz), supplemented by trade-fair participation (e.g., SPS IPC Drives Nuremberg), LinkedIn and XING presence, and press relations. Quality is anchored on DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 certification and CE device compliance, positioning the firm for regulated medical, automotive, and aerospace applications.
