What Behringer does
Behringer GmbH, headquartered in Kirchardt, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, is a 100% family-owned industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1919 by August Behringer. The company designs and produces metal-cutting and material-processing equipment spanning band saws (HBE Dynamic/Performance mitre saws, HBM, plate/block, large-capacity, and 3D variants), circular saws under the Eisele brand (vertical, underfloor, high-performance HCS, and aluminium VA-L), and CNC plate and profile processing centers under the Vernet brand for drilling, milling, marking, deburring, and plasma cutting of structural steel. Through the Partners4Steel technology partnership established in 2009 with Vernet Behringer and Rösler Oberflächentechnik, Behringer delivers fully integrated manufacturing lines combining sawing, processing, shot blasting, and surface conservation from a single source for the steel construction sector.
Complementing its machinery business, Behringer operates an in-house iron foundry (originally established 1951, rebuilt with state-of-the-art technology in 2009) producing approximately 3,500 tonnes/year of grey cast iron (EN-GJL) and spheroidal graphite cast iron (EN-GJS), with components up to 4,000 kg. About 20% of foundry output feeds internal saw machine production; the balance is sold externally to machine-building customers in pumps, drives, shipbuilding, and engines. Revenue mechanics rest on direct capital-equipment sales (quote-based, multi-year contracts) for semi-automatic through fully automated production lines, supplemented by recurring service revenue from hotline/remote-maintenance support, spare parts, on-site maintenance contracts, and application training. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales executed through wholly-owned subsidiaries in the USA, France, the UK, and China, augmented by international representatives and major industrial trade shows. The customer base is concentrated in steel construction (Stahlbau), steel trade (Stahlhandel), machine building (Maschinenbau), and structural steel fabrication, with disclosed implementations at enterprise buyers such as Butzkies Stahlbau, Handelshof Riesa, Biedenkapp Stahlbau, Carl Spaeter Hamburg, and SSI Schäfer.
