BVS Blechtechnik

What BVS Blechtechnik does

BVS Blechtechnik GmbH is a family-run, privately held German contract manufacturer specializing in custom sheet metal fabrication and assembly for industrial OEM customers. Founded in 1989 by Harald Steiner in Böblingen with a single punching-nibbling machine, the company has grown into a three-entity group operating under the BVS Gruppe umbrella: BVS Blechtechnik in Böblingen (parent company, ~170 employees, 13,050 sqm), the wholly-owned subsidiary BVS Systemtechnik GmbH in Schwerin (~30 employees, 4,000 sqm, founded 2017), and the China-based joint venture BVS Chenghua (Jinan) Co., Ltd. (~80 employees, 7,000 sqm, founded 2008). The group employs approximately 280 people across 24,050 sqm of combined production footprint.

The company's core technology stack comprises CNC machining, high-speed twin-head laser cutting, high-precision punching, robotic folding press systems, powder coating, welding, riveting, bending, and surface treatment, complemented by end-device assembly services. It is qualified under DIN EN 9100 (aerospace), ISO 9001 (quality management), and ISO 3834 (welding) at the Schwerin subsidiary. Customers are served across six disclosed verticals: electrical engineering, medical technology, measurement technology, aviation, IT, and machine building.

Commercially, BVS operates a direct B2B enterprise field-sales motion with project-based, quote-driven pricing. The GTM is relationship-led: consultants review customer design data and coordinate economical production on high-tech machines. Revenue is generated through one-time custom manufacturing orders and professional services for assembly and surface treatment; no public pricing, subscription, or recurring revenue model is disclosed. The company is bootstrapped with no external investors, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue figures.
